Gardening Jobs for January
Leaves need to be raked up (good exercise for the day).
Put your leaves into their own compost bay.(not with the rest of your compost).
If no space for above, gather into plastic bags and makes holes in them.
Tie the bags up and leave.
Leave for the season until the leaves break downinto beautiful homemade compost.
Feed the hungry little birds in your garden.
Give them shop bought bird feed and place in bird feeders.
Can give them bread or fruit too.
Put out clean water regularly.
Watch your winter flowering plants and take in the perfume.
Make sure your pot plants are well watered as terracotta dries the plants out.

I have several bird feeders in my yard, but they still end up picking at my vegetable patch. Is there a way to keep them out of there?
Hello
Thanks so much for your question.
Sure, so does your vegetable area have winter veggies growing in it now? Do you have netting that you can use to cover them with?(Like green mesh netting) and hold down with small wooden posts. Are they large wood land birds?
Please let me know as I hope I can help you solve this problem.
