Welcoming Spring with Mulched Flower Beds

Saturday was spent weeding – yes, the weeds are poking through already! Followed by mulching the flower beds around the house as well as the herb garden.  Seems that we had a great opportunity to get this done much earlier than in past years, and just in time for Spring to arrive.  Actually had to double check when the first day of Spring happens in the Mid Atlantic region – found the answer on the Farmer’s Almanac website.  It happens at 12:30 am on March 20th, 2016.
