The garden tiller helped with beautiful flowers |
| 3/5/2010 7:41:01 PM |
 When my kids were growing-up, our neighborhood in the northwest were on nice-size pieces of property. I remember many neighbors owning small garden tillers. When spring time rolled around, that is when we would see all our neighbors again after the cold, wet winters. All our garden sheds would open up and out came the lawn and garden tools. Many neighbors would use their... Read More |

Keeping deer off lawn and garden. |
| 3/2/2010 12:58:26 AM |
| This time of year the Whitetail deer have zeroed in on my shrubbery as well as all the neighbors. Many of my neighbors put out bird seed for the bird's and squirrels but the deer help themselves to this food source along with all the edible lawn plants. A few of the people in the neighborhood also put out corn for the deer during the winter as they enjoy watching the deer... Read More |

Keeping an Organic Lawn and Garden Benefits All Living Things in Our Yard |
| 2/27/2010 9:00:22 AM |
 We are making every effort to go organic with our lawn and garden care this year because it benefits the soil, the pets, the plants, and us a great deal. It isn't that hard to make the switch to organic lawn and garden care and instead of using chemicals that actually slow or stop beneficial microbiological processes in the soil, we are using natural products to feed the...

Great Pocket Tool for Working on Lawn and Garden Projects |
| 2/25/2010 12:11:49 AM |
 We spend a lot of time in our lawn and garden and my husband is always running through the house to the garage for tools, so I thought it would be a good idea to give him tools that he could carry in his pocket so he wouldn't be wasting time running back and forth for things to make working in the yard easier. It takes us about four hours a week to maintain our lawn and... Read More |

Our lawn and garden is yielding gorgeous flower blooms thanks to wife’s efforts! |
| 2/23/2010 3:41:49 PM |
 There are some things in life, like the little things, that can really remind you of how amazingly beautiful this world is that we live in. Small things like my lawn and garden, which my wife has tirelessly been caring for, as she grows her favorite lawn and garden flowers – which after they bloom are carefully plucked and placed in vases around the house to decorate the...

Laboring Away with a Garden Tiller for Ribs |
| 2/23/2010 3:33:58 PM |
 One of the quickest ways my dad got me to do any kind of manual home and garden labor was to offer up some kind of great food when I was completed. When he really had a big job the meal of choice was a rack of ribs next to white corn and mash potatoes. If he offered this meal, cooked on the deck BBQ, without hesitation, I’d pull the hedge trimmer out of the garden shed and... Read More |

Our hedge trimmer keeps yard clean and pristine! |

 Sometimes you never think about how many uses a device that is as simple as a hedge trimmer would have until you realize that you need to use that hedge trimmer a few times per month to keep your yard looking amazing. My wife and I have worked out a little deal when it comes to our lawn care – I use the hedge trimmer and make sure everything looks great, as well as mow the... Read More

Wife’s new garden tiller is sprouting fresh veggies! |
| 2/23/2010 3:21:48 PM |
 My wife just got a brand new garden tiller, one that we found online at a great store for an amazing bargain, and it is really served its purposes well. We already have a really nice lawn and garden, but up until recently my wife was only growing flowers – which have come in just beautifully. However, we have decided that we want to start growing some veggies in our garden... Read More

 Winter is coming to a close here in sunny Arizona and it will soon be time to start working on the lawn and garden. We want to get as much of the work associated with our small lawn and garden done before it gets too hot out and all of us are looking forward to spending time outdoors this weekend digging up the prolific weeds, pruning trees, and trimming up the hedges so...

I Replaced My Electric Hedge Trimmer With Hedge Shears |
| 2/12/2010 3:37:35 AM |
 We have this big square bush out in front of the house that looks good most of the year until late summer when the outer leaves get burned by the summer sun. It’s right by the front door so you can’t miss it. As soon as the hot weather ends we get out our trusty electric hedge trimmer and remove all of the sunburned outer leaves. The bush looks good again and after some... Read More with Video

Enjoy lawn care with this item. |
| 2/8/2010 11:39:02 PM |
| Some people, usually men, fuss and spend hours on end with their lawn care and lawn garden to achieve just the right look. And more power to these hardy individuals. Sometimes I wish I were more like this with my lawn care and lawn garden work these days. I use to be very particular about how I cut my grass, where the flower beds and shrubs were located, how they were... Read More |

Lawn Care Compliments of Mother Nature |
| 2/7/2010 1:45:50 PM |
 Like the Southwest, Southern California for the majority of the year is a sunny place to live. It is nice in some ways but rain is always a good thing. Any kind of weather other then sun is welcomed by this guy. Over the past few weeks, a handful of different winter storm sets came into the area and have dumped a good amount of rain. This is good for a few reasons. For... Read More |

Fighting To Keep Our Front Lawn And Lawn Gardens Hydrated In High Summer |
| 2/7/2010 1:21:57 PM |
 Every summer I try to take very good care of the lawn gardens at the front of our house but it can be difficult to keep it hydrated because it gets a lot of sun and there isn’t much shade. My husband and I spend a lot of energy on keeping the lawn gardens and the actual lawn itself hydrated so that it doesn’t get too dry in the hottest part of summer. We even use a... Read More |

 Every summer much activity centers in and around our garden shed. You see we keep all of our gardening and landscaping tools and materials in our garden shed. There are bags of grass seed and cement, wood, woodworking instruments, trowels, a garden tiller, a hedge trimmer and everything else that is needed to maintain the outside of a property. There are tools in our... Read More |

Umbrellas Keep the Hot Sun off Plants in Lawn Garden |
| 1/29/2010 2:37:27 AM |
 I can't believe that I just ordered umbrellas that will keep me up to 20 degrees cooler in the sunshine and a couple for tomato plants we haven't even planted yet. We haven't had much sun for weeks now, and it's chilly here on the desert floor, but I'm planning ahead and want to be comfortable when the clouds depart and the air temperature soars past 100 for month after...

Checking the Garden Shed for Leaks |

 Being winter there is not nearly as much lawn garden work to do unless you live in the Southwest or Southern California. For people like my dad who have been dealing with a few days of sunny weather surrounded by rain, rain and more rain this is a good time to get out to that garden shed and make sure it is resisting the cold weather elements. We learned this the hard way... Read More |

I need a new hedge trimmer. |
| 1/28/2010 11:36:22 AM |
I need a new hedge trimmer. Cannot put this purchase off any longer as my shrubbery is reaching Jolly Green Giant size, and the small electric hedge trimmer I now use is simply not capable of cutting the larger branches nor can I reach far enough into the larger shrubs to complete the trimming. To this end I have been looking online for a gasoline powered hedge trimmer... Read More |

Time to give lawn care tools a check-up. |

It is the middle of winter where I live and this is the time of year I spend a few hours in my garage giving my lawn care tools a good going over so they are ready to go when spring arrives. One lawn garden tool I go over from top to bottom is my garden tiller. I lube all the cables so they are working smoothly, replace the grease in the gear box that turns the tillers,... Read More |

Doing my part to stave off global warming by using an electric lawn care mower! |

 There are so many different ways that I have been finding out lately that I can incorporate into my daily life to go green and really try and do my best to combat climate shifts. For one, I have started using only a new electric lawn care mower that I bought online. Unlike my gas powered lawn care mower, that polluted the air every time that I used it, the new electric...

Found Handy Garden Pocket for Myself and Sister Online for Lawn Garden Care |
| 1/19/2010 1:25:02 AM |
 Yesterday we had a party at my sister's house and she gave us the royal tour of their backyard. They have only lived in their house for a few years and when they bought it, the lawn garden was in shambles. I can't believe how they have improved it in such a short time. Early this fall they rented a garden tiller and planted a huge flower bed. It's completely in bloom right... Read More |
