Preparing for Spring

With snow on the ground and the temps below freezing for over a week, it looks like winter is here to stay.  Fortunately, we were able to beat the Arctic blast and finish up a most important landscaping project that involved planting around 500 black walnut tree seeds around the perimeter of the property. These beautiful hardwoods turn a gorgeous yellow in the fall but, most importantly, would provide a sound and visual barrier from busy Norell Avenue. Additionally, they would make a significant impact for the area wildlife, providing both food, cover and nesting spots for the birds. Fingers and toes crossed that we see seedlings in the spring!!
