A new year always brings a fresh start. It’s a time when many of us reflect on the past and think about what we want to do differently- new hobbies to try, better routines to build, or projects we’ve always wanted to start.
If you’ve ever thought about growing your own food, filling your yard with color, or just learning a new skill, why not make 2026 the year you start a garden?
Thinking About Starting a Garden?
Gardening is relaxing, rewarding, and a great way to bring a little extra sunshine into your daily routine. Whether you’re a seasoned grower or a total beginner, planning early—yes, even in winter—gives you a head start.

And remember—if you have questions or want hands-on help choosing seeds, soil, tools, or fertilizers, our garden professionals at the Marshall County Co-op are always happy to guide you.
Beating the Winter Blues
Winter in West Virginia can bring gray skies and chilly days, and sometimes that can take a toll on how we feel. But there are plenty of simple ways to brighten the season:
- Get outside anytime the sun peeks out. A short walk can work wonders.
- Start a small indoor project—gardening, crafting, or even houseplants can lift your spirits.
- Check on your animals and livestock more often. Caring for them keeps you active and connected.
- Stop by the Co-op! Sometimes a friendly face, a little conversation, or browsing a new project idea is the perfect winter pick-me-up.
