Start fresh… get a soil test! Testing your soil is the best first step towards a more beautiful lawn, a more productive garden, and a more environmentally friendly home. Learn More.
Seed potatoes and onions are IN STOCK at both stores. Now is the time to plant!
Get your ground worked up, it’s time to start your garden! Begin the vegetable garden with cool season crops such as potatoes, onions, asparagus, and radishes. Beets, lettuce, spinach, and edible pod peas can all be planted in March, depending on the weather conditions.
AND don’t forget your sweet corn, green beans, squash, and cucumbers! We offer a wide selection of Oklahoma proven favorites, by bulk and packet.
Shop our excellent selection of garden tools and essentials: hand pruners, loppers, hand saws, garden weasels, tillers, and more.
Don’t let your plants suffer! Give your plants a drink periodically during those dry spells, if our temps are higher than normal at any point this month.
Apply soil amendments to your flower beds and garden for better results this Spring. We suggest: Peat Moss, HUMALFA Nature’s Prescription, Cotton Burr Compost, The Cow Organic Compost and Manure.
It’s time to pre-emerge your lawn for crabgrass and other grassy weeds. We recommend Barricade and Balan granules or Prowl in liquid form.
It’s an excellent time to fertilize your shade trees, fruit trees, and shrubs. While the grass is still dormant.
When cold weather comes around, feeding our feathered friends is very helpful. We have Oklahoma grown Ross Black Oil Sunflower Seed and Ross Premium Wild Bird Seed, in stock right now. Both are currently on sale, $19.99/50lb bag.
