Spring has sprung! Get ready to put on those gardening gloves 🌷

Here’s a list of tasks to tackle in the garden in April, specifically in the Midwest, so you can take advantage of the good weather.

Indiana sits as its motto claims, at “the crossroads of America.” It borders Lake Michigan and the state of Michigan to the north, Ohio to the east, Kentucky to the south, and Illinois to the west, making it an integral part of the American Midwest.

April will bring good and bad weather to the Midwest, so do not miss out on getting your gardening tasks done on the good days.

• Finish spring cleaning the flower beds.
• Direct sow cool-season vegetables and flowers once you can work the soil easily.
• Start to harden off cool-season seedlings that you will transplant at the end of the month.
• Divide perennials as needed.

It’s time to start prepping your garden for the new season! What plants are you excited to grow this year? 🌻🍅
