For centuries people would move into a gar- den setting to “get away from it all.” Why is it that so many people avoid their gardens when stressed? My experience is that they (and I include my- self) feel they aren’t do- ing enough in the garden and don’t want to face it. They want to avoid all the little tasks that need to be done such as pulling weeds and raking up leaves. We want our gardens to look neat and tidy or we won’t go in them. The only problem is, if we don’t go in them, they won’t look neat and tidy. This month’s tips will help us get over this and feel good about our gardens again. Here are the tips: 1. Don’t depend on feelings to get the work done. Whether we are pulling the weeds or we are managing the job, we need to go out and look them in the face (so to speak) and start with the first one. The second, third and fourth will get progressively easier. 2. Have a reward system in place for each task you do (that you don’t want to do) and give yourself that reward when it is accom- plished. It can be a nice hot bath or a beer and a ball game. If you do the work, you get the reward. 3. Plan ahead for the finished project. It is easier to make a sketch than to dig up a plant- ing bed. Starting the project with a small achievable goal often gets the ball rolling for the big job. 4. Tell someone what you are planning on doing. This gives you a peer review, and ac- countability and some bragging rights when the job is done. 5. Plan a party. Most of my clients are wom- en so I suggest to them a brunch or tea party. It can just as easily be a barbecue. What this does is give you a legitimate reason to detail your yard. After the clean up you can enjoy it for another week. 6. September is a good time to think of lawn renovation. This means thatching, aerating, re- seeding and fertilizing. Of course you can do this after the party (mentioned above) because it will look shabby for a couple of weeks. 7. Plant fall and winter vegetables now and you will have a head start. Cabbage plants, broccoli, cauliflower, collards, beets and peas are started this month. Try seeds now and if you are not happy with the results, get some starts at the nursery. 8. Think of gardening like school. Work, study, take care of business and then have a recess. The garden is a place to play, relax, not think about all the other things needed done. 9. Fall is coming and that means harvest time. Rotate squash so they don’t rot on the bottom. Bundle corn stalks to dry when they are harvested. Keep picking beans as they are reaching full size. Start looking for new and good recipes for all the produce that will be available. 10. Make a space in your yard for rest- ing. Buy a chaise and cushion to lie on after a good days’ work in your garden. Enjoy the little things, smell the flowers and listen to a bird’s song.

2Gardens are a place
of serenity, sanc-tuary and retreat.
For centuries people would move into a gar-den setting to “get away from it all.”
Why is it that so many people avoid their gardens when stressed? My experience is that they (and I include my-self) feel they aren’t do-ing enough in the garden and don’t want to face it. They want to avoid all the little tasks that need to be done such as pulling weeds and raking up leaves. We want our gardens to look neat and tidy or we won’t go in them. The only problem is, if we don’t go in them, they won’t look neat and tidy.
This month’s tips will help us get over this and feel good about our gardens again. Here are the tips:
1. Don’t depend on feelings to get the work done. Whether we are pulling the weeds or we are managing the job, we need to go out and look them in the face (so to speak) and start with the first one. The second, third and fourth will get progressively easier.
2. Have a reward system in place for each task you do (that you don’t want to do) and give yourself that reward when it is accom-plished. It can be a nice hot bath or a beer and a ball game. If you do the work, you get the reward.
3. Plan ahead for the finished project. It is easier to make a sketch than to dig up a plant-ing bed. Starting the project with a small achievable goal often gets the ball rolling for the big job.
4. Tell someone what you are planning on doing. This gives you a peer review, and ac-countability and some bragging rights when the job is done.
5. Plan a party. Most of my clients are wom-en so I suggest to them a brunch or tea party.
It can just as easily be a barbecue. What this does is give you a legitimate reason to detail your yard. After the clean up you can enjoy it for another week.
6. September is a good time to think of lawn renovation. This means thatching, aerating, re-seeding and fertilizing. Of course you can do this after the party (mentioned above) because it will look shabby for a couple of weeks.
7. Plant fall and winter vegetables now and you will have a head start. Cabbage plants, broccoli, cauliflower, collards, beets and peas are started this month. Try seeds now and if you are not happy with the results, get some
starts at the nursery.8. Think of gardening like school. Work,
