HENSALL - The Hensall Co-op is planning a Mothers'
Day, grand re -opening of its Garden Centre, May 11.
"At the moment it's pretty hectic," says the Co-op's Lauren
Love, as she scurries to prepare for the opening. Store man-
ager Bill Atthill is busy reconstructing a greenhouse for the
event, while Love herself is charged with its organization.
This will be the fourth year for the Co-op's greenhouse, and
when completed it will house a wide range of bedding plants,
small shrubs, and roses. Because it is a community store, the
Co-op tries to cover everything to meet your lawn and garden
needs. The wide gardening variety will even include straw-
berries and rhubarb.
The co-op is a one stop shop where customers should be
able to find everything they need.
"If they can't," says Love, "we'll do our best to find it."
Avid gardeners have already begun their usual spring ritu-
als, and Love agrees that this is the time to be trimming and
pruning and advises gardeners should be well prepared.
"Work the ground up well," says Love. "And try using peat
moss; it really pays off." ,),
Laying plastic around plants is a good idea to help beat the
weeds, although it makes it hard to mix in perennials. It alle-
viates the need tel spray and looks great after stones am
placed overtop, but Love advises that gardeners should be
sure to leave enough space around the shrubs so that water
will be able to get down to the plants' roots.
The Co-op has many type'. of stone coverings in both white
and red as well as a birch covering. Currently, the most pop-
ular among new homeowners seems to be the bark chip, be-
cause it eventually breaks down into the soil. The Gardening
Centre also carries mulch which again is quite popular.
For those looking to fertilize, the Co-op offers their 16-4-8,
a slow release fertilizer which prevents the nitrogen from be-
ing lost all at once, making it better for your lawn.
In addition to lawn care products, the Co-op offers a full
line of power equipment inc:uding lawnmowers and garden
tractors as well as a complete line of garden tools.
The Saturday activities will begin with an all -you -can -eat
Mother's Day breakfast served by the Hensall and District
Kinettes. Pancakes and sausage will be served from 8:30 a.m.
until noon for only $3.50, and children under six can eat free.
A garden centre will also be set up this year at the Ailsa
Craig location, and with the Zurich store carrying lumber and
materials for decks and flower beds, Love assures that the
Co-op can meet the needs of both town and country.
