Burlington adices gardeners to prepare for winter with a detailed checklist from Dr. Norman Pellett of the University of Vermont. The guidance covers planting fall bulbs early, mulching, digging up tender bulbs after frost, storing plant parts in dry media, and protecting trees, shrubs, evergreens, and roses with specific materials and timing to encourage winter hardiness and root growth. Water plants thoroughly before freeze-up and favor fall tilling over spring plowing for most garden soils unless erosion is an issue.
