spring cleanup
Annual yard work
Spring cleanup is the seasonal task of clearing away debris, dead plants, and accumulated mess after winter ends.
In yard work, it means raking leaves, pruning, and preparing garden beds for new growth.
The term extends to any thorough cleaning or organizing done as warmer weather arrives: We spent Saturday doing spring cleanup in the garage.
