Welcome to the Ivydene Tool Shed.

Having been in the horticultural and garden maintenance business for something over 15 years, you can imagine that I have acquired a fair number of tools.

Some of my tools are very specialist. Others are more commonplace. In this section, I’ve outlined my favourites, give information on the basic tools every gardener should have, and I make some recommendations on my preferred manufacturers and suppliers*.

 

• Safety First — working safely in the garden.
• Digging — tools for making holes in the ground!
• Scraping — tools for moving stuff around.
• Cutting — tools for chopping things up.
• Other Tools — tools that don’t quite fit any other category.
• Recommended Suppliers — companies where you can buy equipment.

 

*Mention of a particular manufacturer or supplier in the Tool Shed Section no way implies any connection between them and Ivydene Horticultural Services. I mention their names only by way of actually using their equipment or services and having direct experience of them.
