Prep Your Lawn for Spring With these Local Tips

The mounds of snow continue to dwindle as spring works its way into the picture, and green grass is just around the corner.

Or is it?

Maintaining your yard doesn't have to be tricky, and ACE Hardware store Owner Anthony LeDonne offers three tips to get your yard ready for spring:

• Rake your yard of all dead leaves or other debris;
• Use a fertilizer, such as Scott's 4-step program;
• Seed any bare spots.

ACE Hardware is offering a sale on Scott's 4-step program through Monday. They also have rakes, potting soil, seeds and more as you begin to think green for the coming warm season.
