Every year, thousands of Albertans look towards to the future and think about their goals and what they hope to accomplish. This new hope and clean slate approach to New Years is one of our favourite things about the end of the year. But if you’re tired of making (and breaking) the same old resolutions of eat well, get fit, and be healthy, then maybe we can help.

Grow a Garden.

A great way to start incorporating more fruits and veggies into your diet is to grow them at home. The produce we buy in grocery stores is often chosen for its longevity and hardiness rather than its tastiness. Stores want produce that looks fresh for weeks. But when you grow your own veggies, you can choose the varieties that taste the best even if they’re only at peak freshness for a day or two. Work with the team at Five Star Landscaping to decide where in your yard will be best for your new garden.

Craft a Beautiful Yard.

One of the best ways to get fit and feel healthy is to spend time outside working on your yard. Weeding, digging, moving bags of dirt, harvesting beans, and more all take time and work. Research has also found that working with plants and puttering around in the dirt helps people feel happier. Take a pass on the gym, and ask your spouse to pass the shovel instead. You’re a gorgeous yard away from feeling better, and the experts at Five Star can help you put your ideas into action.

Get Outside!

Canadians are working harder than ever and are feeling stressed over it. We have an easy remedy that helps almost everyone relax and feel more balanced and in control — spending time outside. Once your yard has been transformed into a wonderful oasis, you can leave the world behind and read, do yoga, or whatever in the privacy of your own secluded retreat.

Your yard should be more than a pain in the butt. If you’re tired of yellow-brown grass by July and want a yard that’s beautiful, functional, and lush with life, you’ve come to the right place! Five Star Landscaping can help you choose the right trees to optimize privacy, the best perennials for easy elegance, and even water features for you to relax to.
