I know most gardeners have a favourite tool! this is mine…I just can’t do without my old onion hoe (hence the red tape so I avoid losing it). It’s very old and used to belong to my Grandad so it’s very dear to me. Now I know it’s an onion hoe but I have found this to be a great design of tool to work through beds and borders of all kinds. Just armed with a bucket and a small kit, that’s all you really need to maintain a garden. Up until recently my trusty tool has been an utter work horse, I hate to tell you this but My little onion hoe has had a terrible work related injury…..it’s handle came off 😱 After extensive surgery it’s back in action, although the accident made me realise how precious he is to me! as a result I have bolstered my little army of hand tools and treated myself to some handy additions! The .hq right handed hoe and a new hori hori knife. Hopefully this will ease the burden on my trusty friends the .hu push pull hoe with the star system short handle and my No’ 2 Secateurs. 💚
