Don’t Start Your Garden Without These 10 Tools 🌱

Published 12 days ago • 1 min read

Hi Reader

Garden season is here… and before you start planting, I want to save you a LOT of time (and frustration).

After years of growing our own food here in the Midwest, I’ve learned something simple:

👉 You don’t need a ton of tools… you just need the right ones.

So I put together my Top 10 Must-Have Gardening Tools—the exact ones I use every single season to make gardening easier, more productive, and honestly… more enjoyable.

Inside this post, I’m sharing:

  • The tools I actually use (no fluff)
  • What’s worth investing in (and what’s not)
  • Simple tools that make a BIG difference in our kind of soil and growing season

If you’re starting a garden this year—or even if you’ve been at it for a while—this will help you do it smarter.

👉 Read it here:

Let’s make this your best garden season yet 🌱

— Laura

P.S. Save that tools list—you’ll be coming back to it all season.

Laura Lawrence Hi Reader Everyone is itching to get in the garden right now… I get it. The sun comes out, the snow melts, and suddenly it feels like GO time. But here in the Midwest? That’s exactly how you lose your garden. I just put out a new video walking you through exactly what I’m doing right now—what I’m preparing, what I’m holding off on, and when I actually plant (based on what works here, not what the internet says). Because excitement doesn’t grow food… timing does. Watch HERE 🎥...

Laura Lawrence Hi Reader If you’ve been thinking about starting a garden this year—you’re in the right place.
