Thanks to our friend the groundhog, it is not spring yet, but there are still plenty of things you can do to get your yard and garden ready for when winter goes into hibernation.

Now is the perfect time to apply an early spring fertilizer to your lawn, to help give it that extra green boost for when the weather starts to warm up.

Now is also a great time to apply an iron + sulfur treatment on any Maple trees that you may have planted in your yard. If you do it now while the grass is still dormant the maple tree won't have to share the added benefits with the grass. 

If you're wanting to apply an insect protection to your fruit trees, now is the time to apply Dormant Oil. You can wait a week or so, but it needs to be applied before the trees start to leaf out. Dormant Oil offers excellent protection against scale and many insects that like to feast on fruit trees.

Chick season is here! We will be getting shipments weekly, either Thursday or Friday, depending on the hatchery and the postal service. Unfortunately the hatcheries raised their prices this year, requiring us to raise our prices as well, so they won't be the same price as they have been for so many years. We will be keeping our Facebook page updated when we have chickens available for that week. There is a high demand for chickens this year and after seeing how quickly they went the first week, we are going to do what we have done the last two years and allow people to pre-pay for the chickens they want and if we have any left over we will sell them on a first-come first-serve basis. We ask that you pick up your pre-ordered chicks by Saturday at Noon, if we have any left we will be selling those to people who come in looking for chicks and we will issue refunds as needed. It's looking like it's going to be a crazy, high demand year for chickens, our hatcheries are basically sold out of chickens through May, but we will do our best to accommodate where we are able. Feel free to call or come in if you have any other questions or would like to know what we're getting in this year. We will also have our orders posted to our Facebook page, hopefully by the end of the month.
