The baseball preseason has begun, spring is almost officially here, and best of all, the March issue of Digger has arrived!

This month’s main plant feature (PDF) is on berry producing plants, which add beauty and encourage wildlife. We also have an article on “Defending your ground” (PDF) – meaning, the smart use of cover crops. And finally, it’s time to meditate and study “Kaizen and the art of softwood propagation” (PDF). Learn how one nursery adopted Lean production techniques to streamline production, lower costs and reduce stress for employees.
