Beat the Texas summer heat and enjoy your yard.

Hey there, fellow Texans! We all know that Texas summers can be sizzling hot, with temperatures soaring above 100 degrees and humidity levels off the charts. But fear not! You don't have to bid farewell to your beloved outdoor spaces during this time. You can safely enjoy your outdoor oasis while keeping relaxed and comfortable with a few friendly tips and tricks. Let's dive in and discover how to make the most of your outdoor adventures in the scorching Texas heat!


Timing is Everything


When it comes to conquering the heat, timing is your secret weapon. Plan your outdoor activities for the early morning or late evening when the sun is more forgiving. Avoid the midday sun like a pro by taking a siesta or catching up on indoor fun. Trust us; your outdoor spaces will still be there, ready to welcome you when it's cooler outside.


Embrace the Shade


Ah, sweet shade! It's like a calm oasis amid a fiery desert. Seek out those shady spots in your yard, under the trees, or by setting up a stylish patio umbrella. Add some personality with a colorful shade sail or a cozy pergola. Your outdoor spaces will instantly become a haven of comfort and relief from the blazing sun.


Hydration Station


Stay hydrated, my friends! It's the golden rule of surviving the Texas heat. Keep a trusty water bottle by your side and sip, sip, sip throughout the day. Remember to jazz it up with some refreshing slices of lemon or cucumber. And remember, water is your best friend. Sugary drinks can be tempting, but they won't do you any favors in the hydration department.


Dress for Cool Success


Dressing for the heat can be an art form. Choose light, breathable fabrics that allow the breeze to flow and your skin to breathe. Opt for those vibrant, summer-friendly colors that make you feel like you're walking in the sunshine. Remember to rock that stylish wide-brimmed hat and those trendy shades for that added cool factor!


Cool and Creative Solutions


Let's get creative with cooling, shall we? You can invest in some misting magic with a misting system or a portable fan. These little wonders will cool you down and make you feel like a tropical paradise. And how about those delightful outdoor fans? They'll create a refreshing breeze with you saying, "Ahh, that's the ticket!"


Indoor Chill Time


Sometimes, even the most dedicated outdoor enthusiasts need a break from the heat. Take a breather and retreat indoors for a little air-conditioned bliss. Give your body a chance to cool down, enjoy refreshing lemonade, and catch up on your favorite show. You'll be recharged and ready to return to your outdoor oasis quickly.


Now that you've got these friendly tips in your back pocket, you're armed and ready to tackle the Texas heat with a big smile. So, don't let the blazing sun deter you from enjoying your outdoor spaces. The time is right; embrace the shade, stay hydrated, dress in a relaxed style, explore creative cooling solutions, and take indoor breaks when needed. With Turf Plus Outdoor Living by your side, your outdoor adventures will be filled with laughter, joy, and memories to last a lifetime.


Stay cool, my fellow Texans, and let's make this summer one for the books!
