8 essential gardening tools and their uses

You don't need many tools to garden successfully. I suggest what to look for and why these 8 are my favourites. I am not on commission and have no affiliation fee for any except for the dibber which I designed. I just want to show you the most efficient, easy way to use these helpful tools.
