How to Survive Spring Allergy Season
Every spring, Denise Wilson tweaks her daily routine. Instead of running outdoors, she hits the gym. She puts on the air conditioner rather than open a window for fresh air. And she tucks her contacts
into a drawer and switches to eyeglasses.

WebMD (Kara Mayer Robinson 2016), these are absolute musts for Wilson to get through allergy season.
Otherwise she's bombarded with congestion, coughing, sneezing, itchy eyes, an irritated throat, and asthma brought on by exercise.

If you're one of the 50 million-plus Americans affected by seasonal allergies, your yard and garden may be sources of misery.

The closer you are to a pollen source, and the more frequently you're exposed to it, the more likely you are to develop an allergy. With that in mind, we can provide you steps to take in cultivating and maintaining an allergy-free garden and minimize your exposure to allergenic plants.
