2. Remove Yard Debris
Your backyard might be destroyed by winter and spring. My father and I used to spend two summer weekends moving trees that had either split in during spring thunderstorms or buckled under the weight of an Indiana winter.
I've been raking up leaves, pulling weeds, and dragging away broken tree limbs even in the relatively calm weather. Fortunately, compost can be made from the majority of yard waste.
3. Introduce Some New Plants
Is your backyard looking a little drab? Purchase some new plants to spruce up your environment. Plant a garden with vegetables and flowers that will grow in your climate. Nothing beats eating a tomato or cucumber that you've grown yourself.
4. Mow
Everyone's favorite task, I see. However, mowing really isn't all that bad, especially if your backyard isn't that big. Always mow in straight lines and overlap each pass. Don't forget to avoid the heat. Instead of mid-afternoon, mow early in the morning.

Enjoy your backyard now. Bring the barbecue and outdoor furniture out. require new furniture? Having a tidy garden is an excellent justification for purchasing the patio set you've always wanted. After the summer is over, store your outdoor furniture properly to prolong its life.
