This Month in the Garden

As winter begins to fade and we approach the first true days of spring, March holds a load of work to be done in the garden.  The average minimum temperature this month in the Rogue Valley is 35.9 degrees Fahrenheit with a maximum around 58 degrees Fahrenheit.  We usually grab some rain this month with total rainfall hitting around two inches.

Unlike the rest of the country that shares our latitude, February is usually the kickoff of spring for gardeners here in the Rogue Valley. Though there might be a few gorgeous days (or weeks), don’t forget that there’s frost danger until April. Here’s what you should be doing this month in your yard and garden.
