Mowing and weeding your grass now will help you stay on top of any sudden growth that takes place when the weather warms up. \u00a0Early spring is also a great time for pruning flowering trees and fruit trees since they will start budding soon. \u00a0 \u00a0Now is the time to\u00a0start thinking about landscape management; planting annuals right now is a low maintenance way to give a dash of
