Southern Gardeners ~ gardening locally, sharing globally

Ever notice how you have to step on one side or the other of your spade or shovel as you dig? Seems a bit off balance, doesn’t it? This heavy-duty, no-slip footpad replaces the narrow, off-center strip of rolled metal you usually use to push the blade into the soil.

There is a great tool for weedkilling applications in landscape beds and container plants - with pinpoint accuracy. The WeedEezy utilizes a spring valve and 2 1/2″ wide foam applicator to target weeds. Pushing down once will dispense enough weed killer into the foam applicator to touch-treat 20-25 weeds.

As much as we love gardening, it’s easy to forget that it’s still work! Often, in our zeal to get projects done, we use tools that aren’t exactly kind to our aching limbs or joints after a long day in the yard.
