Olympic Lawn Sees Trend in Outdoor Winter Living

Lone Jack, MO, December 06, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Kansas City winds have turned cold, and the heaters have come on full force around town. It’s no surprise that many in the Midwest hibernate when the cool winds arrive. However, Olympic Lawn & Landscape in Lee’s Summit, MO is seeing a trend among outdoor-loving homeowners who want to still be outside even in cold temperatures. Homeowners are turning to outdoor fireplaces and fire rings as a way to stay outside, yet stay warm, through winter.

“We’ve had a gorgeous fall this year, and so many of my customers don’t want it to end. That’s why they’re looking into our outdoor living kits as a way to stay warm while spending time outside,” said Tim Brown, owner of OlympicLawn.net.

Outdoor Patio Kits for Outdoor Living
The downward economy began the trend of Olympic Lawn's customers preferring outdoor living kits. The kits can be assembled at home, and homeowners spend much less than what a professional patio installation would cost. Instead of splurging on luxurious vacations, budget-conscious homeowners have opted to funnel extra funds into home features that offer a relaxing space with affordability. Plus, by fixing up the backyard and adding patio features, the investment can be enjoyed over and over.

Brown’s top suggestion for a winter-friendly outdoor patio kit is a Grand Fireplace, which features a Lennox wood-burning fireplace housed within a large, attractive stone frame. It's a centerpiece for the lawn. For a smaller outdoor kit, a fire ring is perfect for homeowners who want the warmth of a fire pit, yet fewer cleanups and more permanence.

“My family loves our fire ring, we bundle up and roast marshmallows over a fire all winter long,” said Brown. “It’s the perfect winter activity.”
