Does your spring to-do list look like this? Many homeowners have a similar or even long list and it’s just the right time of year to tackle it.

Not all of these items are fun, but all are necessary. There’s always something to do when you own a home. Upkeep is essential for not only appearances, but in some cases safety as well. Sometimes we get a few great ideas for change – adding something new to the yard, renovating your home or even yard design.

When you get the time and energy to tackle your to-do list be sure to get your supplies or help from our local businesses. Many items and services can be found right here! This includes but is not limited to paint and supplies, landscaping stones and rock, plants, seeds and trees, fertilizer, tools, etc.

A number of services are also available to do it for you. Mowing, fertilizing, weed spraying, carpentry, handy man jobs, shingling, AC servicing, electrical work and more are available for hire. 

We have a great deal of goods and services here in Barnesville that other similarly sized communities have to offer. In visiting with people from out of town, I find they are often surprised to find how much we do have. I would venture to guess that some of our own residents don’t even know all that is available here for them. 

Take a few extra minutes to call or stop by that local business and see if they can help you with your needs. If they don’t stock it, they’ll probably order it for you. They can give knowledgeable advice and help you make good choices so you won’t have to re-do that project. They are eager to help you, pleased to be of service and appreciative of you choosing them for your business. They are your friends and neighbors, parents of your child’s friend, your fellow volunteers, they sit by you at ball games, church and just about anything you do in town. They play a large role in the Barnesville business community.  Be sure to play your role too by shopping with them. It helps everyone – and you’ll be closer to the end of that to-do list!
