🍎 Apples, Apples, Apples 🍎 
Apple season will be finished soon so if you’re in need, stop in this week!  There are currently two varieties available.  Don’t forget to stock up your freezer with tasty apple treats too – apple pies and bread, Stovetop Filling to use during the next few months, apple sauce, and of course, some apple crisp!  If you’re looking for new apple recipes, visit our Recipe page on our website and scour the dozens of recipes available.

Tip of the Week!
This winter was a beast… between the unreal amount of snow, the wind, ice, and rain, we’re really glad it’s finally Spring!  If you used salt on your sidewalks and driveway or roof melt to get rid of those pesky ice damns, and you’re worried about the effect the salt will have on your perennials and shrubs, we’ve got an easy solution – make a note on your calendar to flush the plants and soil under the eaves and along sidewalks with clean hose water as soon as possible, once all the snow melts away.  Doing this a few times over a week to 10 days will get rid of a lot of the build up on the soil surface.

🌱 Gardening Seeds 🌱
Now is the time to plan your 2019 garden, if you haven’t already!  Decide the space you’ll have and what you’ll start from seed versus what starter plants you’ll need to buy.  We have seeds galore – from veggies to annuals, organics too.  Visit soon for best selection.  Depending on what you’re planning, you may have to start your seeds indoor before planting outside, after our last frost date of course {that is typically the end of April but watch forecast reports}, whereas a direct sow is more appropriate for other seed varieties.  There is a ton of growing info on the back of each seed packet that will give you a good guide as to where and when to sow your seeds but you can find great information over on our blog too – we have a number of seed blogs available to read!  Along with seeds, Bauer’s has everything else for your seed starting needs – growing trays, peat pots, soils, moisture meters, the list goes on and on.  Should you have any questions, please ask us in-store, give us a call, or shoot an email our way and our staff will be happy to assist and answer your questions!
