    Community Tips & Tricks: From home maintenance to gardening advice, this section is packed with helpful tips to make life in Wellington on the Lake even better. Share your own tips and tricks with us, and let's learn from each other!

    Home Maintenance: Preparing for Winter

    As winter approaches, it's essential to prepare your home for the cold weather. Here are a few tips to help you keep your home warm and safe:

    1. Insulate Your Pipes: Prevent frozen pipes by insulating them with foam sleeves or heat tape. This is especially important for pipes located in unheated areas such as basements and crawl spaces.
    2. Seal Windows and Doors: Drafts can significantly increase your heating costs. Seal any gaps around windows and doors with weather stripping or caulk to keep the cold air out.
    3. Clean Gutters: Clear out leaves and debris from your gutters to prevent ice dams from forming. Ice dams can cause water to back up under your roof and lead to leaks and damage.

    Gardening Tips: Fall Planting

    Fall is a great time to plant certain types of flowers and vegetables. Here are a few tips to help you create a beautiful and productive fall garden:

    1. Plant Bulbs: Plant spring-blooming bulbs such as tulips, daffodils, and hyacinths in the fall. This will give them time to develop roots over the winter and bloom in the spring.
    2. Grow Cool-Season Vegetables: Plant cool-season vegetables such as lettuce, spinach, and kale in the fall. These vegetables thrive in cooler temperatures and can provide you with fresh greens throughout the fall and winter.
    3. Mulch Your Garden: Apply a layer of mulch to your garden to help retain moisture, suppress weeds, and protect plants from frost.
