Garden to Bed & Winterizing
Timing & Services Offered
This service is usually provided between mid-October and mid-November; signaled by when the deciduous trees start to drop their leaves. This service is not available until after Thanksgiving each year. With our extended growing season, it is too early to put the garden to bed prior to mid-October. In fact, we plant until mid October and often plant bulbs into the month of November.

Removal of Harmful Leaves from Beds and Borders

“I had my garden put to bed last week and my husband and I were thrilled with how quickly they did the work and how neat our beds look now. We were wondering why we didn’t have Kate’s Garden do it in past years. Thanks.”
