Amazon Big Spring Sale: Lawn and Garden Deals

Amazon


It’s time to start preparing your lawn, garden and patio for spring. This probably means doing some lawn cleanup work, creating a comfortable environment on your porch and planting your garden to provide flowers and vegetables throughout the summer. 

Right now, the Amazon Big Spring Sale is going on, which means you’ll discover great deals on the time-saving tools, furniture and products you need to enjoy your lawn and garden throughout the spring, summer and fall. You only have a few days (until March 25) to take advantage of these limited-time deals, so don’t wait. 


10 best lawn and garden deals available right now on Amazon

Our in-house team of lawn and garden experts have curated this roundup of the best deals on the tools, outdoor furniture and items you’ll need to make your outdoor living space a beautiful and comfortable place to spend time.

Greenworks 40V 16″ cordless lawnmower: $224 (25% off)

Greenworks 40V 16

Amazon


You can snag a generous 25% off this popular Greenworks 40V 16-inch cordless push lawnmower at the Amazon Big Spring Sale. It comes with a battery and charger included. What’s great about the Greenworks lawn care products is that more than 75 of them use the same 40V rechargeable battery pack.

This push lawnmower provides the power you need with up to 45 minutes of runtime on a fully charged battery. Recharging a battery takes about 120 minutes. The mower is ideal for small to medium-sized yards (up to 0.5 acres). It comes with an easy push start button. The unit itself weighs under 38 pounds and offers a mulching or bagging option.


Greenworks 40V cordless leaf blower: $93 (28% off)

Greenworks 40V Cordless Leaf Blower

Amazon


If you still need to gather up leaves or remove unwanted debris from your lawn now that winter is finally over, this Greenworks 40V cordless leaf blower will do the trick. It comes with one battery and a charger. It’s ideal for cleaning leaves and debris from hard surfaces, like a patio. Of course, it also works nicely on a lawn too, all without making too much noise.

There’s a variable speed control, so you can boost the air power up to 150MPH when needed. The unit itself is lightweight (just 3.27 pounds) and it has an integrated handle that’s comfortable to hold. 

We suggest investing in one or two extra batteries ($54 each) since one fully charged battery will only keep the blower going for about 15 minutes when it’s used at full power.


Greenworks lawn mower, leaf blower and trimmer bundle: $408 (15% off)

Here’s your limited-time chance to upgrade to three popular, battery-powered lawn tools at the same time and save 15% on the entire bundle. This deal includes the Greenworks 40V 16-inch brushless and cordless lawn mower, a leaf blower and a 13-inch string trimmer, along with two battery packs and a charger.

The mower provides the power you need with up to 45 minutes of runtime on a fully charged 4.0Ah battery. Meanwhile, the 13-inch string trimmer has a head that rotates 90 degrees, so you can trim and edge at multiple angles. The 40V blower delivers up to 100 MPH for powerful leaf and debris cleanup.

What we love about this three-tool combo is that because it runs on rechargeable battery packs, there’s no gas or oil required.

Husqvarna Automower 430XH Robotic Lawn Mower

Amazon


Using this smart sprinkler timer, you’re able to connect any traditional garden hose to the device and then remotely control it using your smartphone. It features a brass water inlet to reduce wear on the water timer itself and its faucet thread.

You’re also able to water by volume. This means you can set how many gallons as you want to be dispersed per session. It supports three watering plans and two watering modes. Each can have a different start time, duration and watering frequency. The single smartphone app can simultaneously control up to four of these sprinkler timers.

$100 million in federal funds released for North Carolina to rebuild roads, bridges damaged by Helene

North Carolina’s Helene cleanup efforts begin


North Carolina’s massive cleanup efforts underway more than a week after Helene

01:21

Washington, D.C. – The U.S. Department of Transportation released $100 million in emergency funds on Saturday for North Carolina to rebuild its roads and bridges damaged by Helene. 

“We are providing this initial round of funding so there’s no delay getting roads repaired and reopened, and re-establishing critical routes,” said U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg in a statement. “The Biden-Harris administration will be with North Carolina every step of the way, and today’s emergency funding to help get transportation networks back up and running safely will be followed by additional federal resources.”     

The storm caused rampant flooding that has devastated several towns and killed more than 225 people – with CBS News confirming at least 114 people killed in North Carolina. There was more than 8 inches of rain across the western North Carolina mountains, with some areas seeing more than a foot. 

Hundreds of roads across Western North Carolina remain closed, leading to an increase in air traffic as teams scour the region for survivors by air. Air traffic over Western North Carolina has increased by 300% due to relief efforts since the storm cleared, the Federal Aviation Administration and the North Carolina Department of Transportation.

Mudslides blocked Interstate 40 and other highways in North Carolina and about 400 roads were closed due to damage from Helene. Interstate 40 was damaged at several locations, the Department of Transportation said.  

President Biden visited the Carolinas on Wednesday, surveying the flood damage by air from Greenville, South Carolina, to Asheville, North Carolina. Mr. Biden announced the federal government would cover “100%” of all debris removal and emergency protective measure costs in North Carolina for six months.

The Department of Transportation said these relief funds will allow the North Carolina Department of Transportation to act more quickly to fund eligible repairs to their damaged facilities.
