Shut off any electric heat tapes, line elimination devices or other equipment designed to prevent freezing during the winter..... save on electricity!

Yard cleanup; leaf and debris pickup, rake and fertilize any grass areas, mulch and prepare flower beds for planting.

Order flowers they are a cost effective way to dress up any location. Tired of planting every year? Plant annuals they come back on their own year after year.
