Some people love yard work and others avoid it. No matter which category you are in, chances are your yard needs some regular maintenance. It's almost always easier to do small chores for ten minutes every other day, than to devote an entire weekend afternoon to yard work. Use the following list to help keep your yard looking fresh, trimmed and neat.
- Cut the grass, or have a lawn care service come to your home every week. (15-60 minutes)
- Pull up weeds. (10-30 minutes)
- Edge flowerbeds and walkways. (30 minutes)
- Remove dead blooms and leaves from flowers and plants. (10 minutes)
- Spread mulch. (30 minutes)

- Trim hedges and shrubs. (20 minutes)
- Water lawn, shrubs and flowerbeds. (10-60 minutes)
