JANUARY

Crevant : Wild geese on the pond of the Esserts

January brings the snow, makes our feet and fingers glow !
A month of January without frost never brings a good year.
If January is soft like February, February is hard like January.

Things to do in the garden

  • Verify the protection of plants that are susceptible to the cold and recover with bracken if necessary. If the weather permits open polytunnels from time to time to air them.
  • If it's not freezing prune certain trees and cover the wounds with Pine Tar.
  • In the vegetable garden you can still plant garlic and onions in a light soil.
  • In the flower garden trim the perennials and clean the beds.
  • Put compost at the base of shrubs and perennials.
  • It's a good time to maintain and grease garden tools.

Tip of the month :

Potatoes that burst : To avoid your potatoes bursting during cooking add a few drops of lemon juice to the water.
