Even though it seems like we will never see the end of this rain, the long week end is approaching and the gardening season. Here are a few tips that can help you make sure you do not overdue it.

-Stretch upper back and arms before starting

-Make sure to bend your knees, do no bend at the waist when planting.

-When you pick up something heavy bring the weight close to you and bend your knees to lift

-Take breaks

-Make sure to drink and stay hydrated

-If you feel pain stop and ice for 10 min

Hope these few tricks will help your gardening season go a little smoothly!!!
