October... REALLY?

Well... October is finally here. A month and year I have actually been excited about. I am proud to announce that I will be 40 this month. To celebrate I just may have to purchase the type of Halloween costume I would have worn in my 20's. Isn't 40 the new 20? Anyway...In poking around the internet I was looking for things to do this month. First let's take care of our chores.

Food For Thought:

October is a great month for preparing your lawns and outdoor landscaping for the winter.

Did You Know?

Lawn feeding, pruning and mulching is highly recommended. My dad always told me to prune and feed as the weather cooled in the fall so that the next year's harvest will bloom vibrant color and healthy beauty.

The Daily Press has a complete gardening schedule for your convenience.

Now that the yard is manicured and ready for the winter (and the winds) eek.. I am really looking forward to the Farmers Market Fall Festival this weekend with Wendy. It runs Oct 16-18. My friend Colleen turned me on to the farmers Market a couple months ago and now I don't like to buy my produce at the grocery store. You get better quality for less. You can even haggle a bit if you dare!

Excerpt: "Each Fall (usually in late October), Farmers Market celebrates the harvest with a great, family-friendly festival. In addition to crafts and entertainment, the Festival usually features several bands and special acts just for children. Fall Festival often offers very special events, too (marching bands, pig races and a petting zoo have all been part of the celebration in years past). Depending on the calendar, Fall Festival may find a lot of merchants and Market staff decked out in appropriate Halloween costumes, too. Fall Festival is so popular that families often call our office weeks ahead to find out when the Festival will take place".
