Its important to be prepping gardeners for the winter. There’s still time for people to put down a layer of mulch or protect their tress and bushes from pests and sunscald. In fact, for new gardeners, help them plan to begin the process earlier next year.

Provide The Right Tools For Prepping Gardeners

Take a look at the products you distribute and always consider more competitive solutions for your customers. Promote the items you have in stock that are ideal for winterizing with in-store displays, social media posts, video tutorials and in-store seminars. Not only will your customers appreciate the easily accessible help, they’ll be creating a bond with your brand. Plus, winterizing can lead to a conversation about optimizing the garden for seasonal beauty. While they’re already out there protecting plants, they might as well bring out decorations and accessories too!

Get Them Thinking About Starting Early Next Time

Show new gardeners and green thumbs how easy it is to stay organized and begin the process earlier in the fall. Once they get the hang of the simple tasks, gardeners will be more interested in the details of creating a healthy garden for spring. For renters, help them understand which potted plants can be left on the balcony and which come inside. Organization of plant labels and tags is key.

Create a Packaging Plan For Next Year

Next year, create labels that prepare customers for winterization. Booklet style labels offer more content space for tips and tricks.  The cover is also easy to pull off. This allows them to keep it in a binder and come back to when the time is right.
