REVIEW – A well-organized garage (or shed) is a beautiful thing. This year’s spring cleaning included a new addition: the Garden Tool Organizer from My Thing Logic. This rack is designed to onboard all of your outdoor tools and gadgets, and it’s got wheels to zip around the yard! Does it fulfill my journey to

NEWS – My Zero-G garden hose from 2018 is still performing perfectly. I bought it myself, leave it outdoors, and it works like a champ. If this sounds like a commercial, sorry, but this mundane, ‘everybody needs one’ product has been a good one for me, so this is an uncompensated endorsement. This hose has

REVIEW – As you can see from the image above, I live with someone who loves houseplants. Having beautiful plants in our home is nice, but watering all of them can become a bit time-consuming. Is there a way to enjoy growing plants without the need to manually water them all the time? That’s where

REVIEW – It’s that time of the year again, autumn and all the falling leaves that come with it. I’ve spent many hours working in the yard, raking leaves. This year is a little different; I’ve got the Worx NITRO 80V Brushless Cordless Backpack Leaf Blower to review and help me wrangle my leaves. Let’s

REVIEW – With spring finally arriving in the Pacific Northwest this year my wife wanted to start a garden in the backyard. The idea of swinging a pickaxe to break up soil all weekend did not sound fun so to save my back I jumped at the chance to review the Eveage corded electric tiller. Let’s

NEWS – I live in the woods which means I have trees and brush all around my yard. Keeping my yard neat and tidy could be a full-time job, but the job can get easier with some special tools. The Hooyman Extendable Tree Saw is a 5 foot saw that folds down to a 12

REVIEW – The Spring season in NY is in full swing with neighborhoods buzzing with the sounds of landscapers using their equipment to beautify lawns and remove any signs that it was once winter just a few short months ago. In my household, it is time to prepare the planting beds and to plant the

REVIEW – Battery-powered lawn mowers have several benefits over their gas-powered cousins: No more trips to the gas station, no need for oil, no worries about burning off all the gas before storing it away for the winter, less noise for your neighbors, and so on. Last year was the first time that I used
REVIEW – I was very fortunate to finally get an inground swimming pool at my house this year. When planning the landscaping around the pool I tried to be very water conscious and use as little grass as possible. On the back left-hand side of our house where the pool pumps sit, I have a

CROWDFUNDING REVIEW – I love growing things. Flowers, grass, veggies, you name it. While I’m pretty good at growing things outdoors, I’m a lot less good at growing things indoors, which is why I am excited about an upcoming Kickstarter by Elecrow.

REVIEW – The SnapFresh BBT-ZE20BW leaf blower is the lightest blower I’ve tried. The blowing power and working time from a single charge did not disappoint. Heavier hand-held blowers can be fatiguing either from their weight, the blow-back resistance, or both. The SnapFresh was pleasant to use in that it was not tiring to use.

NEWS – I love plants. I love growing flowers, veggies, and fruit trees. While I’m pretty good at growing things outdoors, I really suck at growing things indoors. Mostly that’s because I can’t seem to remember to water the plants, which explains why I’m so intrigued with the Tevaplanter. It’s a water bank; that is,

REVIEW: The Ryobi RY40407VNM 40 Volt Cordless Jet Fan Leaf Blower is a ‘uni-tasker’. It simply blows stuff from where it is, to where you want it to be. This is the first Ryobi tool I’ve handled and it has me thinking about other 40 volt Ryobi tools since they all use the same battery.
