Decide what Tools you need for your Garden


What tools do gardeners really need, it is difficult for someone that is just beginning to Play in the Dirt. Tools are a long term investment and can be very expensive so I’ve compiled a list to start the new gardener. Garden tools need to be chosen with comfort, price as well as their functionality.

If you are working outside with your Lawn these are a few possibilites:

Lawnmower
Edger (for the perfect edge along driveways or sidewalks)
Leaf rake for leaves

Shovel
Trowel
Garden rake or Hoe for planting (vegtables or leveling dirt or mulch)

Hand shears for pruning (trees and shrubs)

Watering Hose with a spray nozzle or a watering can

You may also need containers to move things around some possibilities area garden cart or wheelbarrow, buckets, garbage cans.
