If you have a front yard, you are going to want to make it stand out and look good every season. Here are some tips to follow by to help you put together your Front Yard Garden. 

• Use containers that can be moved so you can plant according to season: tulips in spring, daisies in summer, mums in fall, and evergreen in the winter.
• Create a gravel path with a stone walkway. It will help you maneuver around as well as giving your garden the extra focal points.
• Include lighting. If your walkway to your house appears dark, it will feel unwelcoming. Try solar panel lighting to brighten up your walkway at night and to give it some appeal.
• Be sure to plan your landscape so that it can be enjoyed in all angles.
• If the space allows it, add a sitting spot. You are going to want to enjoy what you did to your front yard, and it will be the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee or afternoon book.
• Do not sweat over weeds, but do not use harmful toxins to kill them either. Add white vinegar into a spray bottle and spray the weeds away. But be sure not to spray the plants you can to keep since the vinegar can stop their growth.
• More natural tips: fertilize the soil for your garden with used coffee grinds. Just mix it into your soil and the worms will do the rest
