May is here, and with it comes one of the best windows of the entire year to get your garden, landscape, or outdoor project off the ground. At Maple Leaf Farms NJ, we’re fully stocked and ready to help you make the most of the season. Whether you’re looking to create privacy, add color, grow your own fruit, or just freshen up your property, this is the month to plant.
Why May? The soil is warm, the weather is stable, and plants have time to establish roots before the heat of summer kicks in. Whether you're a homeowner, contractor, or landscape professional, now is the time to load up and get it done.
