Hey all, thanks in advance for the advice :)
So its my really close friends 21st Birthday soon (and due to this price really isn't a factor). They love growing herbs and veggies, but are in the process of learning to operate with some semi-recent health conditions that make physical activity really difficult and draining, especially on bad days.
I was thinking a great present (or part of my present) would be something/s that would enable them to garden with less strain, as less physical toil = less pain and fatigue later, which in turn makes it easier to get back out there and enjoy the activity, let alone life!
Things like a really good quality, easy to squeeze pair of secateurs are what I am looking for (I think). Or something that I have never heard about! Not a gardener myself so I have no idea. Going to get some advice from mum as well, she has a pretty similar condition.
I got my mum a hanging wall herb garden and an auto-watering device a couple years back, she loves that, this friend is much more industrious and has a full veggie/herb patch etc. Thinking an auto waterer and setting it up for my friend might be one part of it, so in hard times they doesn't feel guilt about not getting around to watering, just press the button and forget about it.
Thanks again! <3
a gift voucher for Jims Handyman? :)
what about one of those kneeing mats? You don't say how big the garden is but something like a cart to pull tools and supplies?
