Ready to get outside and tackle some of those spring gardening chores?  You’re in luck, as there is no shortage of advice and resources in the area.

If you’re planning on some spring clean-up, Tri County Ohio Mulch, 72 West Crescentville Road, is accepting clippings, trees, and shrubs (no plastic bags or twine, please).  This service is free to residents of West Chester, Ohio.

There are also a number of gardening classes coming up in the next few weeks that may help you get a jump on gardening tasks or inspire you for the season.  See individual websites for details:
