Late Winter Homestead Checklist: Preparing Before Spring

Late winter is the ideal time to prepare for the busy season ahead.

Review Feed and Supply Inventory

Spring demand increases quickly. Checking feed, mineral, and supplement supplies early helps avoid shortages or last-minute trips.

Inspect Fencing and Shelter

Cold weather exposes weak points. Fixing fencing, gates, and shelters now prevents issues during pasture rotation or severe weather.

Walker’s carries fencing supplies, T-posts, wire, and repair hardware to help you stay ahead.

Check Water Systems

Inspect hoses, troughs, and fittings for damage caused by freezing and thawing. Small fixes now prevent bigger failures later.

Preparation during late winter makes spring smoother, safer, and less stressful.
