Tape Tool
This amazing fastener tool has been a game changer in the garden as I need to fasten vining plants to trellises. I use it for grapes, roses, cucumbers, squash, tomatoes, vines and anything that needs a quick fastening.
Fabric Garden Hose
I love my flexible fabric hose! It is lightweight and easy to pull around the garden without kinking.
Roo Garden Apron
I always put my Roo Apron on when I head out to the garden. It has ample pockets to accommodate my pruners, twine, phone and more. The thing I love most, though, is the huge kangaroo apron for harvesting! Once I’m done, I unhook the easy hooks and unload my harvest right onto my countertop.
Gorilla Grip Kneeling Pad
Gardening can be tough on your knees. That is why I make sure my Gorilla Grip kneeling pad is always close by, especially when I am weeding or planting.
Sun Joe Wood Chipper
I always have an active compost bin that I add to almost daily. This portable chipper has been such a help in decreasing the volume of waste I add to my bins. It makes it so that I can fit much more in the bin and since it is already chipped, the composting process is dramatically sped up.
Gorilla Dump Cart
On my wish list this year is this handy dump cart from Gorilla Carts. Since I am constantly carting wood chip and compost around my gardens, this will make the task so much easier. Please, Santa! I promise I’ve been a good girl.
CoolJob Gardening Gloves
I go through a lot of gloves every year. Because they “fit like a glove” and are not at all bulky, they are by far the best for maximum finger movement. Since they are so affordable, I keep a steady supply on hand.
Felco Pruners
The tool that gets the most mileage, hands down, is my garden pruners. I always have them when I head out to the garden. And, it never fails, if I think I don’t need them… I need them. These are my favorites because they are light weight with a small head that can reach in almost any spot.
Knife Sharpener
To keep my pruners in their best and sharpest condition, I make sure I have a sharpener close by at all times. Keeping my pruners sharp provides the cleanest cut on my plant and does the least damage.
HABIT Shirts
To protect my arms from the hot Arizona sun and the sharp thorns of my rose bushes or the scratchy squash vines, I love these lightweight, cool shirts from Habit.
Neptune Fish & Seaweed Fertilizer
My favorite organic and liquid fertilizer is from Neptune’s Harvest. The smell is terrible, but the results are fantastic! I especially love to apply it before a rainstorm.
Hori Hori Knife
The other tool in my arsenal that logs a lot of miles is my Hori Hori Knife. This tool does quadruple duty and more. I am always reaching for it in the garden to help with the simplest to the most complex of tasks.
