1) Make Sure Your Lawn Is Well Maintained
If it’s hot out and the weeds have taken over your lawn, you may be a lot less inclined toward enjoying your outdoor space. To get the most out of your lawn during summer, Garret’s Landscape can help. Our lawn maintenance services include, but are not limited to:
- Lawn turf seeding
- Professional installed lawn irrigation
- Lawn aeration
- Leaf removal
- Mulch pine needles to keep weeds at bay
- Strom clean up
A luscious lawn that feels good underfoot is something that can be enjoyed throughout the summer.
2) Get Outside in the Cool of the Day
When the mercury does climb beyond 90-degrees, the kids might even be begging to stay inside. As much as possible, get outside in the morning hours, before the sun is high. By late afternoon, our high elevation combined with the lower angle of the sun will take the edge off the heat. Temperatures rarely stay above 70-degrees in the mountains, so let the kids play till bedtime while you relax.
3) Create an Awesome Outdoor Living Space
Turn your yard into space you will want to enjoy all year. We help homeowners design and install the perfect outdoor living space. Your space may include:
- Outdoor kitchen and appliances
- Comfortable seating
- Ornate fire pits
- Peaceful water features
- Shading and fans to help keep cool
- Places to install entertainment systems
Your outdoor living space can help manufacture shade and other cooling devices, so you can enjoy your lawn and yard while your children or grandchildren are playing in the sun or pool.
4) Go Backyard Camping
Tent camping is a favorite pastime of residents in Asheville and Hendersonville. However, with millions of tourists visiting the area each summer, campgrounds can get busy during summer. If you have a lawn and yard in western North Carolina, you have a great place to go camping. Hang your hammock or pitch a tent, build a campfire or use your professionally installed firepit, but whatever you do, get outside and have fun.
