In today’s gardening world we have many choices for tools that did not exist many years ago. This makes gardening much more productive and enjoyable. We have a variety of hand tools our grandparents never even dreamed of like bulb planters and different types of weed removing tools. We have power tools to do many jobs to make gardening fast and productive, not to mention easier on our body. Gardening technology has advanced by leaps and bounds in the past fifty years. We can elect to use tools like pesticides or go with a more Eco Friendly approach like organic styles of gardening which is much more kind to our planet. With tools like rototillers and fertilizer spreaders, we can produce more crops and flowers faster, better, and bigger. Gardening should be relaxing and easy. Information is available to anyone that wants it through the World Wide Web and the many universities that offer it for all to enjoy and benefit from. Through these great information sources even a complete novice can become an excellent gardener and not waste resources and money learning how to do things the proper way.
Here at The Yankee Gardener we have used a simple but very effective little tool called a Bulb Planter to plant 70 bulbs in a little over an hour and a half. It made planting bulbs quite a lot of fun. It also made it extremely easy. My wife and I are not into a lot of power tools and that is mainly because we just enjoy getting our hands right into the earth and feeling like we are totally connected. We do use power tools for certain gardening chores like the initial ground breaking and tilling. From there we try to use hand tools for many reasons. Gardening should be about peace and quiet and enjoying your time with nature. There are many new tools on the market today to suit your gardening needs
and wants.
At The Yankee Gardener we will continue to bring you many new resources and connections to information and new education as it becomes available. We want your gardening experience to be a happy and productive one. That is one sure way for you to feel like you have really accomplished something and feel great about working in your own garden. We have tools like Trug’s Tubs to carry your assorted gardening tools and seeds or fertilizers. Trug’s Tubs are an Eco Friendly product made from recycled tires and plastic to keep the landfills in better shape and make use of Earth’s dwindling resources. anything at all we can do to help our planet out is a very welcome effort in our book here at The Yankee Gardener. We also welcome and will use your suggestions and make sure you get the credit deserved for those suggestions. Please feel free to email us with your suggestions and pictures
so we may share them with all the gardeners that enjoy this great hobby.
I am a Maine native and love the great outdoors. My wife and I are yard hermits in the summer. We spend all our time out in our yard adding to the look and feel of our property which led us to go into business for ourselves dealing with yard and garden decor.
