Maine Gardening 101
Memorial Day Weekend is upon us and so, for many in Maine, it’s time to start our summer vegetable gardens. Vegetable gardening is a wonderful activity as it is relaxing, but can also be a fun challenge for those who are looking for one! According to experts, gardening is good for you because it gets you moving, get you a bit dirty (because, apparently, dirt is good for you!), boosts your mood, and connects you with nature- all which can be incredibly therapeutic.
So, how can one best take advantage of the gardening season in Maine? Let’s dive on in!
overwhelming feeling that being in an unprecedented time can give, it’s understandable that many of us feel antsy and uncomfortable! Since staying home and being safe are utmost priorities right now, it is important to take care of our mental health and energy by doing a variety of activities to benefit our mind, body, and home.
It’s starting to finally feel like spring in Maine! The sun is shining a bit more than it was a month ago, the air is getting warmer, and we are shedding those winter layers. While Mainers continue to abide by Governor Mills’ Stay at Home guidelines as our state faces COVID-19, now is a great time to work on your yard. Not only will your property benefit, but you will enjoy the fresh air and be able to get out of the house in a way that is safe for yourself and others.
