The appearance of your home's exterior creates an initial impression of you as a homeowner, and indicates the overall condition of your property.

Anyone who really loves their home will put effort into its upkeep. Not only because they want to maintain the value or their investment, but also because they take pride in their home and fully enjoy it.

Do you have a growing vision for your perfect outdoor space but wonder how you can get started?

There are so many options for completing a landscape project. Call in all your healthy young relatives. Bribe your buddies at work with a bbq and a full cooler. Hire that guy down the street. Or do it yourself…. Just remember that old adage: You get what you pay for.

Outdoor kitchen and dining area

When well designed, outdoor kitchens become natural gathering spots where you and your family will enjoy cooking, grilling, and sharing a meal together. You may have big dreams for this space, but once you start planning, you may find it\'s even more complicated than planning an indoor kitchen remodel.

Where do you begin in order to ensure you\'ll create an amazing outdoor kitchen? Here are our top outdoor kitchen design tips to help get you started.

Few things are as fun-or as Canadian-as a night outdoors, with friends, drinks, and maybe some marshmallows, s\'mores or other comfort food roasted over a crackling fire.

There\'s almost a deep primal joy we get from gathering around in a circle sharing old stories and jokes, strumming a guitar and huddling together for warmth. So, why do we limit our campfire experience to camping and cottage trips?

It\'s May. Ever wonder why they call it May? This year we're starting to think it\'s because summer may or may not come!

For many of us, by the time late fall arrives, we\'re a little less enthusiastic about yard work than we were throughout the spring and summer.

But preparing your plants and shrubs for the winter can actually be a pleasant way to spend some time outdoors enjoying the cooler weather before winter arrives. And your plants and shrubs will thank you by thriving beautifully in the spring.

Click below for a few things you can do to prepare your plants and shrubs for the winter.

Pests
