Excellent. Absolutely loved reading and very helpful at the same time.

If you merely intend for your tiller in order to maintain present plots, then a smaller, less potent machine is going to do. In fact, the majority of tillers will nonetheless ask you to exert some effort as a way to operate them.

I love my Hoe/Rake combination tool. With a wheelbarrow, just make sure it's the foam tires. So nice not to worry about thorns, rough abuse to pop the tires.

I have several favorites...a weed extractor, my loppers, my weeder open hoe type thingie, but recently I acquired a Root Slayer!!! I love, love, love this shovel/saw/root slayer! I had some ornamental grasses that had such a thick root system, I couldn't even begin to get a conventional pointed shovel through the masses. So, I saw an add for this Root Slayer, watched the video, read the comments from many women my age (70) who said it was like slicing butta! And it did! This is my new fave!!!

I have too many necessary tools to pick a favorite. I did notice a few things in your list that I will be adding to my own :)
I don't like to wear gloves for the same reason you mentioned, although cleaning dirt from under my fingernails IS a real hassle, do a necessary tools is definitely a NAIL BRUSH. I like that wire/wood basket too...you could totally MAKE that!

Two garden tools I've used for years (& wouldn't want to be without): LOPPING SHEARS - cutting end looks like oversize pruning shears; they have long wooden handles - great for reaching things needing trimming - incl. vines, small tree branches, etc. & esp. cutting at or near ground level while standing (really helpful when your body gets older & bending, stooping, etc. are a challenge, if not painful). My other fave tool is a shovel with a long, narrow blade called a SHARPSHOOTER. Works great for digging deep much more easily than a standard shovel. Purchased both tools at local hardware store. Also from local hdwe. store: GARDENING CART - easier on this older body than a wheelbarrow (I can no longer lift up wheelbarrow) - my cart is deep, holds a lot, & front end is slanted & will dip down to ground level - great for scooping matter up into the cart, or, later, for emptying the cart. Also, my CAT loves playing in the cart! Patricia

I just bought a new wheelbarrow, True Temper brand, their 6 cubic foot contractor model. My son tells me that it's the wheelbarrow they send out to jobsites where he works (a company that builds commercial greenhouses) and they've never needed any repairs.

That bottom basket would be so easy to make for someone with some woodworking skills. I have 2 favorite garden tools. One is a big woven basket my mother gave me. It's the perfect size for weeding or for a bumper crop of tomatoes. I too rinse right in the basket before I take the veggies inside. The other is an old tarp. When our firewood tarp gets too torn and ceases to keep the firewood dry I lay the tarps on the garden, cut holes where I want to plant the veggies and plant away. No weeding necessary & that tarp gets a second life instead of a trip to the landfill.

I NEED those herb scissors! I would love a tiller too but our garden is so small I don't know if it is worth it.
