Introduction
A lush summer lawn doesn’t happen overnight—it starts with the care you give it during winter. Here’s how to lay the foundation for a healthy, vibrant lawn all year long.
1. Protect Grass from Traffic
Avoid walking or driving on frozen grass, as this can cause compaction and damage that’s difficult to repair.
2. Clear Snow Regularly
Too much snow on your lawn can create excess moisture, leading to mold growth. Shovel or plow strategically to protect your grass.
3. Fertilize in Late Fall
Applying fertilizer before winter provides nutrients that sustain your lawn during dormancy, helping it bounce back in spring.
4. Inspect for Pests
Even in winter, pests like grubs can damage your lawn. Check for signs of infestation and treat early.
Conclusion
