Gardening Tips

 

Working in the garden can be a relaxing way to spend your day. Here are a couple of easy ways to make the job even more enjoyable!

 

 

1. When you're heading out to the garden, grab your child's sled. Load the tools and plants on board and slide them easily around the yard. This is also a great way to gather weeds. Load them on and pull them around. No more carrying heavy bags with you!

2. If your trowel is too big for your small plantings, try a shoehorn instead. It's the perfect size for those tiny jobs!

3. Paint a bright stripe around the handle of each tool and they'll be easy to spot in the yard when you need them!

4. Cushion your knees with a swimming kickboard or a sheet of packing styrofoam.
