🌿 Here at the Nursery, we tend to talk about plants the most, but we can’t forget who makes gardening possible: YOU! 💚

☀️ Taking the proper steps to prepare yourself for a morning of gardening is crucial, especially in the heat of summer.

🌡️ Here are 3 ways you can Beat the Heat:

💧 1. Hydrate!
Drink plenty of water before, during, and after gardening!

🧴👒😎 2. Protect yourself from the sun!
Apply sunscreen, wear breathable long sleeves, a wide-brimmed hat, and sunglasses. Protecting your skin from the sun’s rays can also help you stay cooler.

🌅 3. Garden with the sun, not against it.
Start early in the morning and wrap up before the afternoon heat sets in.

🌸 What are some of your favorite ways to stay cool while gardening during the summer? We’d love to hear your tips! 

Anybody can sell you plants, we make sure you succeed.
