Put your garden to good use. When landscaping your garden, don't forget to plant fruits, and vegetables. If you don't like the idea of a traditional vegetable garden, you

can grow them in large planter boxes or pots, or even interspersed between existing plants. Many varieties are

so attractive, that they will add a little interest to your garden beds while providing you with a food source.

plantings. This is not a set rule in any way, but a good one to keep in mind.

If you are doing any landscaping projects that include lumber you may want to consider waiting until winter to purchase it. Lumber is the cheapest during the winter, which could get you the highest quality lumber for the price of much lower quality lumber during the prime summer months. This might mean waiting to complete

your project, but the savings will likely be worth it.
