Despite the snow last week, March is traditionally the time when most people start thinking about their gardens. Spring is an important time to kick start the growing season again. There are lots of things that can be done with your lawn at this time of year.
I get excited by the strangest things – compost is one of them. I like to make my own, and it’s so easy to do – I can’t believe I’ve only been doing this for the last three years. Part of the problem is the fact I started fifteen years ago with one of the plastic dalek-style compost bins which put me off for years before I tried again with a wooden slatted compost bin. Granted these are more expensive, but you can find offers online or make your own. The bonus is they come apart so you can empty the compost easily or move them to another part of the garden.
