5. Warmer Weather is Finally Approaching
Not only do I find the warmer weather more comfortable to garden in, but this means I can finally move all my houseplants outside. My kitchen is crowded during the winter time with all the plants I have hanging on the front porch. Springtime allows me to finally have my kitchen back!
4. More Sunny Days to Spend outside
I think I enjoy the sunshine as much as all the plants do. I soak it up when I’m outside digging in the dirt. It tends to draw me to the outdoors, by making the yard seem much more inviting.
Frequently asked questions
Spring brings so much beauty and joy into our lives! It's a time of renewal, flowers blooming, and gardens coming back to life. It's hard not to feel grateful when you see all the new growth and colors.
Spring often lifts our spirits! The longer days and warmer weather make it easier to spend time outdoors, which can boost your mood and energy levels. Plus, who doesn't feel happier surrounded by blooming flowers?
Gardening in the spring is incredibly rewarding. You're planting new seeds, watching them grow, and nurturing them into beautiful plants. It also gives you a great excuse to spend more time outside, enjoying the lovely weather.
Spring is all about fresh starts and new beginnings! It’s a season that naturally encourages us to take on new projects. Whether it’s starting a garden, redecorating your home, or picking up a new hobby, spring is the perfect time to roll up your sleeves and get started.
One way is to spend time in nature, appreciating the flowers, trees, and everything that’s blooming. You can also start a gratitude journal, noting down little things in spring that make you happy. Sharing your love for spring with friends and family is another wonderful way to express your gratitude.
3. New Flowers Can Be Planted
The nurseries always fill up in the spring. I enjoy perusing my favorite nurseries to see what new plants are available for me to buy. Planting new flowers always keeps me very busy!
2. I Get to Try out My New Garden Tools
I usually buy new garden tools in the fall when they go on sale. Unfortunately, I have to wait until spring arrives to try them out. It is definitely something to look forward to.
1. Boredom is Finally No Longer an Issue
I can always find plenty of things to do in the spring. Layering compost onto the plot where the veggie garden will go, mulching the flower bed, and tilling new ground for another garden area are just a few of the tasks that keep me busy in the spring.
These are my personal reasons for being thankful spring has arrived. I’m sure you have your own reasons and I’d love to hear some of them. Do you live in an area with an extremely long winter and a short spring? How do you handle this type of climate?
