Garden Planners/ Journals and Log books
This must-have paperback book will easily help the gardener design, organize and keep track garden performance. Gardeners use it for vegetable planning, flower beds, pots, herbs, fruits, or anything else to plant. Perfect for beginner or experienced gardeners.
Buy these on Amazon for only $12.99
Coffee Table Books
These highly rated books sit on my coffee table and I love to look through them for inspiration and education from a fellow gardener. They have fantastic tutorials on how to grow and arrange flowers from your garden in very different ways. Absolutely beautiful photographs inside each book.
Garden Kneeler and Seat Amazon
This garden seat and kneeler has been a game changer for me and many of my patients. As a Physical Therapist and garden enthusiast, I know that kneeling or sitting in the garden brings the garden closer to you and avoids bending over which increases the damaging forcing on your spine.
As we age, getting off the ground can be challenging, so the hand rails are essential in pushing up to stand with your core engaged in an optimal posture.

Mantis 7924 2 cycle plus Garden Tiller: (Amazon)
This garden tiller would make any garden Mamma happy!
My husband got me this tiller for my garden 3 years ago. I wanted a smaller tiller that I could handle and start on my own that could get into my garden beds, even the small ones.
It's lightweight (20lbs) and the handle grips are ergonomically designed for comfort and ease. I love that it can get into small beds and the handle bars fold for storage in small spaces.

EGO Power Cordless Leaf Blower (Amazon)
As I have said before, not many women like a pull start motor!. I love this EGO battery operated tool. I can slip on this battery and start blowing my leaves or grass off my sidewalks immediately. The battery life is about 90 minutes, which is more than enough time than I need to blow off my back porch and sidewalks.
Most users who are experienced with leaf blowers will be right at home with the variable speed trigger, which lets you adjust from “off” to full power with just one finger. The turbo feature, which is controlled by a button under the thumb on the top of the hand grip, is comfortably placed and easy to use.
It is expensive, but a lot of the EGO cordless tools use the same battery, so you don't need to buy more than one battery charger unit. Overall, this was a great purchase for this independent woman who loves yard work!
BackEZ Back-Saving Tool Handle Attachment
For shovels, rakes, hoes, etc
As a Physical Therapist, I recommend this device to prevent back injury while hoeing, raking or shoveling in the garden or yard. This keeps your back in an optimal position as you work!
Grippy Garden Gloves
There is no brand I recommend one over another, but I do think that is essential to have grip on the palm and fingers. This will help you improve your grip strength and will decrease hand fatigue. It’s great for weak hands, people with arthritis or anyone to improve endurance in the garden.
Garden Sleeves
Garden sleeves can effectively withstand the sun's rays and help prevent you from being bitten by insects or scratched by vines while you are gardening.
Garden Bench
Oh how I love to sit on this bench and gaze out into my raised gardens! It is highly rated and comfortable to sit on!
EGO Battery Powered Chain Saw
This is a high-quality tool that provides a great balance between power and portability. As a woman who loves gardening, I am always on the lookout for powerful and efficient tools that can help me maintain my yard.
When it comes to cutting trees and limbs, the EGO Power Chainsaw 18-Inch 56-Volt Cordless Chain Saw caught my attention when my husband was using it for a while. I never really used the gas pull start chainsaw we had because it looked too heavy and too cumbersome to start.
After he talked me into using this EGO battery operated chainsaw myself, I am pleased to share my thoughts and experiences in this review.

Garden Hat that I rate the Coolest on hot days:
Solaris Women's Sun Hat Wide Brim Outdoor UPF 50+ Protection Hat Foldable Cool Mesh Ponytail Bucket Hat
They even have a pony tail opening!
Cocktail Garden Kit Amazon
Gardeners can sit back with a cocktail appreciate their plants they just grew that enhanced their beverage. They will grow 6 unique indoor garden plants for Mixed Drinks with Seeds, Starter Pots, Planting Markers and Peat Discs. This makes a fun hostess gift, birthday, or holiday gift.
With the thoughtful gifts we've explored in this blog, you can equip yourself or your favorite gardener with the tools and gadgets needed to make the journey more manageable and enjoyable. From ergonomic garden tools to time-saving innovations, there's something for everyone to enhance their gardening experience.
Happy Gardening,
Sue
