Published on December 10, 2021
As winter approaches, it's time to prepare your garden for the colder months. Shannon Cowan, a gardening enthusiast, shares her recommendations for the best gardening products to make the most of your winter garden.
Raised Garden Beds
Cedar raised beds are a popular choice for winter gardening. They offer durability and season extension with deep planting depth, making them ideal for vegetables, herbs, grasses, and flowers. A mobile cedar garden bed, equipped with locking swivel wheels, ensures easy relocation. For those seeking additional protection from frost, a large cedar raised bed kit with a removable greenhouse cover (8' x 8') provides sturdy framing, insect netting, and fencing, making it highly suitable for winter gardening.
Another option is composite raised garden beds, such as those made from sienna composite boards with a wood-grain finish. These beds offer durability and natural beauty, supporting various herbs and vegetables. However, they do not specifically mention winter features like greenhouse covers.
Composters
Composting is essential for a thriving garden. The Jora JK270 Composter, with a capacity of 9.5 Cubic Feet, and the Worm Factory 360 Composter are great choices for managing your garden waste.
Garden Planters
The VegTrug Raised Garden Planter, made of natural wood, is perfect for growing a variety of plants.
Fertilizer
Corn Gluten Organic Fertilizer, with a composition of 8-0-0 and weight of 40 lbs, is an excellent choice for nourishing your garden.
Other Products
The Premium Drinking Water Safe Garden Hose, with a slim 7/16" size, ensures easy maneuverability around your garden. Wildflower Farms Eco-Lawn Grass Seed, weighing 5 lbs, is perfect for creating a beautiful, eco-friendly lawn.
In conclusion, with the right products, winter gardening can be both enjoyable and productive. Whether you're a seasoned gardener or just starting out, these recommendations provide a great starting point for your winter garden. Happy gardening!
Family activities can include setting up a winter garden using sustainable products such as cedar raised beds or composite raised garden beds. To maintain the garden, one might incorporate composters like the Jora JK270 Composter or the Worm Factory 360 Composter into their lifestyle. Home-and-garden improvements could also involve adding garden planters such as the VegTrug Raised Garden Planter and using eco-friendly fertilizer like Corn Gluten Organic Fertilizer. To make gardening more accessible, consider purchasing a premium drinking water safe garden hose and wildflower seeds for an eco-friendly lawn.
