10 Ready-to-Post Drafts — Tidewater Outdoors — Morgan Blake (SAMPLE / FICTIONAL)
Edit names/details, then post. Each matches a ★ row in the calendar.
1. November yard checklist — Nov 2 · IG/FB
Seacoast November checklist 🍂 ☐ Final leaf cleanup (leaves smother grass under snow) ☐ Last mow ☐ Cut back perennials (leave some for pollinators) ☐ Shut off + drain outdoor spigots ☐ Wrap or stake vulnerable shrubs ☐ Mark driveway edges for the plow
Save this. Need a hand? DM us.

2. Mow or mulch your leaves? — Nov 4 · IG/FB+X
Light leaf cover? Mulch-mow it — it feeds the lawn. Thick, wet mats? Rake or blow them off before snow, or you'll see dead patches in April.
Rule of thumb: if you can't see grass through the leaves, they've got to go.
Photos shared with the homeowner's permission. Tips are general; conditions vary by property.
3. Protect shrubs before snow — Nov 7 · IG/FB
Seacoast snow is heavy and wet. Your arborvitae and boxwoods feel it.
• Loosely tie upright shrubs with twine • Burlap screens for salt-spray areas near roads • Don't pile plowed snow on top of beds
15 minutes now saves a replacement in spring.

4. Curb appeal for realtors — Nov 12 · LI+FB
Realtors: listing in late fall or winter? Curb appeal still matters for photos.
Quick wins: • Crisp bed edges + fresh mulch line • Clear leaves from walks and gutters • Evergreen containers by the door • Working path lighting
We offer quick listing-prep visits around Exeter and the Seacoast.
Photos shared with the homeowner's permission. Tips are general; conditions vary by property.
5. Fall planting results — Nov 18 · IG/FB
Fall-planted shrubs settling in nicely at an Exeter home (shared with the owner's OK 🙏).
Why fall? Cooler air, warm soil, less watering stress. Roots get a head start before spring.
No guarantees with Mother Nature, but fall is one of our favorite times to plant.

6. Thank you, Seacoast — Nov 21 · IG/FB+LI
