  • Keep water in your Christmas tree stand to prevent the tree from drying out and dropping needles. This reduces the risk of fires as well.
  • Pamper your indoor plants. Collect rain water and give them a drink. They will love it. Rain water can help reduce any salts that might have built up over time.
  • Rake the leaves from your yard and compost them. The compost will be ready in time for spring gardening.
  • Remember the bulbs you refrigerated. It is time to plant those bulbs for beautiful spring flowers.
