Choose a Location

Selecting the best spot for your garden is crucial. Look for an area with direct sunlight, free from tree shade, and where soil preparation will be easier. If you have a sprinkler system, ensure your chosen location is within its range to simplify watering.

Clear Out Weeds

Once you’ve picked a location, start by removing weeds, grass, and debris to prepare the soil. For new gardens, dig beds about 12 to 14 inches deep. If you’re revitalizing an existing garden, loosen compacted soil by turning it over to improve aeration and drainage.

Set Up Soil

Different plants require different soil conditions. Use the right combination of barkdust, mulch, soil, or compost to create an optimal growing environment. Mixing in existing soil helps maintain balance. Once prepped, dig small holes in your garden beds and start planting your flowers, vegetables, or other greenery.

Build a Garden Fence

A garden fence is the final step to perfect your garden. Secure, enhance, and define your garden with a fence that ensures it can grow in optimal conditions,

Protect Your Plants: If you have pets or wild animals walking around your property often, then a fence is a great way to protect your plants, from getting trampled and eaten. No one wants to come home only to see your dog has torn up your garden. Protect your plants with a garden fence.

Define a Garden Space: A garden fence can help easily define a garden space. This makes it easy to better plan out the rest of the yard, especially if you have other projects going on. Also, if you have multiple gardens, the fences can act as boundaries or markers to let you know which type of garden is which.

Amplify Your Garden’s Beauty: A quality garden fence can enhance your garden’s aesthetic, by customizing the fence material and style to fit your garden and property.
