Specially designed for year-round, indoor gardening.

Properly maintained quality garden tools are a joy to use and can last for generations. And, like most things, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Regularly cleaning and oiling your garden tools will prevent rust, keep them sharper, and allow the handles to stay strong.

Think safety first when using power lawn equipment, such as leaf blowers and wood chippers, to work on your yard. Watch this video to find out more.

There's nothing worse than spending a lot of time getting leaves raked and loaded into the wheelbarrow only to have a bump on the path or a gust of wind empty them out for you. Here's a solution that will make collecting leaves easier and keep them in the wheelbarrow.

The Ames Collector Series 26-inch leaf rake is designed so leaves are collected quickly and efficiently. It is available at The Home Depot.

Protect vulnerable shrubs and trees from potential weed whacker or lawn mower accidents. Keep a plastic juice bottle, slit down the side (with the top and bottom removed) tied to your machine. Stop before working too close to plants and slip the bottle around the trunk while you weed or mow in that area. Remove the bottle when you move on.

If you waste time and energy running back and forth from the garden to the shed for tools and garden supplies, use an old golf bag and cart to caddy both long- and short-handled garden tools.
