A garden fork is also a necessary tool. Even though there are metal ones out there, many people still choose to go with a wooden one for the simple reason that it does not rust like the steel ones do. The next tool in your toolbox should be a pair of garden shears. These are simply two long metal blades that we use for various garden tasks such as weeding, cutting plants or pruning branches. You can buy them already sharpened or you can sharpen them yourself by taking some sort of tool sharpener that you can get at any home supply store.
Next on the list is a compost fork. This is used for mixing fertilizers, soil or liquid fertilizer. A compost fork has an opening at the end that allows you to insert the handle so that you can put in your hand and dig into the compost. If you have a larger garden, you can even buy a compost shovel that has a handle instead of an opening to attach to your garden fork. These are especially useful for the winter months when you need to prepare the garden for the snow season.
Another very important tool that you should consider buying is a spading fork. Spading forks are used for digging up potatoes, onions, carrots and other green and leafy vegetables. The spading fork usually has a thin metal handle with a blade at the bottom. Most spading forks have small tines at the top of the handle that come in handy when you are trying to dig up tough areas.
The fourth tool in your garden hand tools list is a Mattock. This tool looks similar to a small mattock. If you have ever seen a blacksmith working on a blacksmith's forge, then you have seen a Mattock. The Mattock is used to heat metal in order to make blades.
If you are still a little fuzzy on what a shovel and spade are, let me explain. A shovel is a garden tool that you use to dig. A spade is the opposite of a shovel. A spade is used to dig up things and you will use it to plant and grow your garden crops.
Now that you understand what garden tools are and how they are used, you may be interested in learning more about gardening gloves. Gardening gloves are vital piece to your gardening kit. It will protect your hands and fingers from getting hurt when you are digging up your garden or planting your garden crops. Gardening gloves are also used when weeding or planting our garden because the sharp blades of the spades and shovels can hurt your hands.
You will also find other tools that are specific to garden work like rakes and trimmers. They are designed to do specific jobs and you should learn about those jobs before you purchase any of these tools. Some rakes come with blades that are serrated while some rakes come with less serrated blades.
