Set Tool Fork
Garden Tools From the Kitchen Drawer
Why go and spend a fortune at the nursery on new tools, when there is probably a wealth of unused stuff tucked away unused in your own kitchen, or someone you knows kitchen that will more than adequately do the exact job you want, without having to spend a cent.
Just make sure that anything taken from the kitchen really is not wanted there. As well as the fact that such stuff is on a one way permanent trip out to the garden shed.
Here are just a few suggestions of stuff that are useful kitchen refugees,
Old dinner knife for digging weeds out from between concrete sections or pavers.
Old kitchen fork for light weeding in around tight places or where you do not want to disturb root systems that are close to the surface.
Good sharp kitchen knife or a pair of kitchen scissors are great fro dividing up clumps of plants, or for taking cuttings off of a branch.
Kitchen tongs can be used to pick up thorny cuttings or to help you repotting thorny plants like cacti.
Serving tray or placemats to keep things organised or for carrying produce, cuttings or even weeds.
Potato Masher for pushing past a thorny plant or rose.
BBQ or Carving Forks for digging out stubborn rooted weeds and root vegies.
Kitchen funnels for pouring various liquids into containers or for accurate pouring around plants. or to get seed or even small screws & nails into storage packets or bottles.
Chopsticks make great little pot stakes (metal and wooden skewers work too), or construction sets even for some jobs.
I've seen bamboo placemats and chopsticks cut down to make scenery pieces for bonsai planters, along with old aquarium ornaments.
Set of measuring cups and measuring spoons are great as scoops for fertilizers and potting mixes.
Icecream or soup scoops for measuring and scooping potting mix in around new potplants.
Egg rings and biscuit cutters for shaping growing fruit just for fun, or as a simple handheld hoe for light weeding in around plants.
So theres a few things which can obtain a second life out in the gardenshed and garden, nstead of being stored for years in a drawer, or being thrown out or passed on to a charity store.
