March has arrived and with it that unmistakable feeling that spring is finally on the way. The days are getting longer, the sunshine is (occasionally) breaking through, and there’s a collective urge to get outside and start afresh. Mud on your shoes? Totally acceptable. Dirt under your fingernails? An absolute must!
This month’s issue is bursting with all things gardens and gardening, because March is when the gardening year really starts. Whether you’re a seasoned grower with a shed full of tools or someone who’s just bought their first packet of seeds on a whim, now is the time to get stuck in. We’re shining a spotlight on the best local nurseries and garden centres (from p35) – the kind of places where you want to buy all the plants and figure out where you’ll put them later. You’ll also find practical, easy-to-follow advice on what you should be doing in your garden right now (p46).
Of course, March isn’t just about gardens — it’s also the gateway to Easter fun (p19). With the school holidays on the way, we’ve rounded up a brilliant selection of family activities and attractions to help you make the most of the season. Think fresh-air adventures, hands-on fun, and plenty of ways to keep little (and not-so-little) people entertained.
So whether you’re planning garden projects, hunting down the perfect plants, or looking for ways to enjoy the Easter break, this issue is your go-to guide for the month ahead. Enjoy!
