March sometimes seems like the longest month of the year. It is cold, wet (sometimes rain, sometimes snow) and dark. Well, that’s not the case here at Mequoda Publishing Network. Our partners brought us offers that really brightened up our days. There were so many great things to learn and enjoy that the days just flew by!

We also can’t stop thinking about a tool that we just LOVE. CobraHead is the home of the original CobraHead® Weeder and Cultivator, a multi-purpose hand tool for use in gardening, horticulture, and agriculture. They also produce a stand-up hoe using similar blade technology, the CobraHead® Long Handle. Their tools are becoming known for both their usefulness and quality. CobraHead promotes small-scale food growing and markets their tools to help develop the knowledge of food gardening.
Spring Meadows Nursery shared with us their shrubs of the year. Spring Meadow launched the Landscape Plant of the Year program in 2016 to highlight a Proven Winners ColorChoice variety of particular interest to the landscape market. It proved so popular that we were asked by the Proven Winners Retail Advisory Board to expand it to garden centers and consumers. Check out the best of 2024 today!
JRM Chemicals introduced us to SoilMoist which is safe, non-toxic, and used in both horticultural and agricultural applications. SoilMoist are water-storing granules that absorb water, then release the water to the soil when needed and can reduce irrigation frequency by 50% and last 3-5 years in the soil.
Power Planter® introduced us to tools that will make our Spring planting so much easier. They are a third-generation family-owned auger manufacturer that started three decades ago in rural Illinois and is still located there today. Power Planter has evolved over the past 20 years from the invention and patent of our original Power Planter auger to offer a variety of different sizes, models, and even auger accessories today. They strive every day to adhere to the same level of craftsmanship and work ethic the company was first founded on more than 20 years ago.

I hope these products help curb some of your Spring fever. I know mine is coming out in full force.
