Build for the winter months too…

When designing your landscape, it’s easy to focus on the growing season and forget about the long winter. However, considering winter maintenance during the design phase can save you a great deal of money and energy on snow management. Good design can also allow you to use your landscaping in winter rather than just look at it from indoors.

Walkways should have an even surface so that snow shoveling is easy and they don’t create a tripping hazard. Driveways should also be even and wide, with a place to put snow if needed. It’s important to keep the landscaping back from the driveway and in highly visible locations. When everything is covered in snow, it’s tough for your snow management crew to see petite plantings.
