Dayton "Dirt" - December 24, 2010

Christmas Eve is a welcome slow down from the Christmas rush and coming just after the winter solstice on December 21st. It reminds us that we’re entering the depths of the long, dark winter.

There is plenty to do in winter as it relates to gardening. Winter is the time to catch up on all your garden reading reviewing the new mail order catalogs and plan new projects in your garden.

At the nursery, we’re putting the final touches on our plans for spring which includes what we will grow in our new greenhouse facilities, what new plants we will stock and promote and the continuation of our winter seminar series in order to educate our gardening customers.

What better time to learn about the garden than winter when the garden itself is asleep!

In spring, there will be some new surprises for anyone coming into the garden center but will wait to give you a hint of what is to come late this winter.

Keep an eye out on our website for updates about the seminars and other items of interest.

Remember that we will be open next Monday-Thursday 9:00 am to 5:00 pm and will close Friday, New Year’s Eve at 3:00 pm and will remain closed (except for seminars) until March 1st.

We will still be here working and ready to answer your phone questions and e-mails.

Merry Christmas everyone.

Tom
