Tools Every Gardener Needs

TSU Extension Agent Joellen Dimond shows the tools that every gardener needs and that she uses regularly. There are many specialized tools available but Joellen uses basic garden tools available in most garden stores. The tools include: hand pruners, gloves, loppers, pruning saw, hand cultivator, trowel, garden fork, morrow hoe, small and large shovel, leaf and garden rake, and a broom. She talks about how she uses each tool. If she had to pick only one tool she would take her hand pruners.
