  Mulch, a layer of material that covers exposed soil, can have many benefits for your garden, including:

• Water conservation: Mulch helps soil retain moisture and reduces evaporation by up to 50%. It also improves water penetration and reduces runoff.
• Temperature regulation: Mulch insulates the soil, moderating temperatures in both summer and winter. This can help protect plants from frost damage in the spring.
• Weed suppression: Mulch blocks sunlight, preventing weeds from growing.
• Soil health: Mulch can improve soil conditions by binding sandy soils and loosening clay soils. It also provides nutrients for beneficial microorganisms and earthworms, which can help your plants.
• Erosion protection: Mulch helps prevent soil erosion.

   Leaves, branches, and twigs accumulate throughout the winter and must be cleaned up before mowing. Getting leaves and debris off of turf is critical to allow the lawn to breathe. A thorough spring cleanup prepares beds for fresh mulch and annual flowers. 

 You'll also want to dethatch your lawn to get rid of that layer of dead grass that has accumulated over winter.

• Aerate - Aeration helps your lawn's roots grow deeper, which can make it more resistant to heat stress, drought, insects, and disease. It also improves drainage and allows air, water, and nutrients to move more freely through the soil to reach your grass roots. Aeration can also prevent your lawn from becoming compacted over the winter.
• Fertilize -  Apply a fall fertilizer to help your lawn recover from summer heat and drought, and store nutrients it needs to survive the winter. Fertilizing after aerating gives your lawn the nutrients it needs to thrive.
• Clean -  Remove debris like grass clippings and other organic matter to keep your lawn free of contaminants. You can also mulch grass clippings to enrich the lawn.
• Rake leaves -  While your lawn can usually handle some leaf cover, removing leaves can help your grass grow.
• Mow - Keep mowing your lawn regularly throughout the fall, making sure to trim it so it doesn't get too long. When your grass stops growing, give it one final mow.
