The warm weather is finally here, with the official start of summer merely weeks away. As you spend long nights relaxing on your patio, you may want to make specific updates to the area to maximize the space. Follow these tips to start updating your patio this season.

Upgrading your furniture

Add a touch of luxury to your patio with outdoor-friendly, weatherproof furniture, including chairs, chaise lounges, and a table. Of course, most patio furniture is already constructed to be weather-resistant with durable materials and coating. Still, colorful pillows can add comfort to the area while you relax, read a book, watch your children play, or enjoy a meal.

Construct a Fire Pit

Add a central focal point to your patio by building a fire pit. Perfect for lighting, heat, and fun activities like toasting marshmallows in your backyard, a fire pit provides something to build seating arrangements around, rather than having chairs placed randomly about. Fire pits are easily constructed and can be custom-made to match the stones of your patio or the furniture for a more cohesive appearance.

Add a vegetable garden

Learn the true meaning of farm-to-table by growing your backyard vegetable garden! By leaving enough space between plots for roots to take hold, you’ll be able to efficiently provide your family with fresh vegetables at a fraction of the cost of buying them in-store. Early June is perfect for planting strawberries, carrots, and summer squash.
