While gardening season is winding down for most activities, now is a great time to check out your gardening tools to make sure they are in tip-top shape.
That’s according to University of Illinois Extension Master Gardener Gwen Podeschi.
It’s a good time to sharpen some of the tools you don’t always think of.
When you store the lawnmower for the winter, it’s a good idea to winterize it. That includes sharpening the blades, as well as emptying the gas tank.
Fellow Master Gardener Linda Smith says you should clean your tools before you put them away.
Smith and Podeschi appeared as guests on the WTIM Morning Show.
