TGoG 106 – The Top 8 Tools I Use When Gardening

This episode is essential listening for gardeners at all stages, from raw beginner through to the seasoned green thumb.  It has a little something for everyone, even if you don’t currently have a garden, but are wondering what tools to buy or borrow before you start growing your own vegetables.

I list and describe my top 8 tools I use when gardening, every time that I venture into the patch and orchard.

Here they are in no specific order of importance;

1. Leather Gloves
2. Garden Bag
3. 3 pronged handheld fork
4. galvanised 9L Watering Can
5. Secateurs
6. Wheelbarrow
7. Cotton Twine, and
8. Aerobin 400 for making compost

So there you have it.  All very simple, and mostly inexpensive tools that I use when gardening in our suburban food farm.

I hope that each and every listener got something from this episode!
