The temperatures are warming up here (Northern IL) but still getting frost at night so it's a little early to plant here. I'm still cleaning up and planning. Going to order some topsoil and mulch at local garden center and can pick up curbside. Totally off subject but do you aerate or power rake your lawn? I've been aerating in spring and fall and my lawn is looking nicer.
