The wonderful thing about gardening is it can be as labour intensive or relaxing as possible. You may decide that you will dig your entire plot by hand this year, or you might choose to use some machinery and then spend more time in the deckchair!
Whichever path you venture down, the decision of which tools and equipment to use is an important one - there are literally hundreds to choose from!
Gardeners are a loyal bunch in general - if they stumble across a pair of gloves or a spade which serves them well, they will search high and low for an identical replacement when the old favourite eventually wears out. If this sounds familiar, and if you found the the very best piece of clothing or equipment, please let everyone know!
