Wow, that is cool - it would be handy picking green beans!!

Nancy.

A new product!
What a great idea. I think I will order one.

This means I'll be getting my Lee Valley catalogue soon.
Although I can read it online, it's nice to get a free catalogue. Thanks.

Much handier than the front of my shirt, which doesn't hold nearly enough when I'm picking fruit, LOL.

Nell

Nell,

I use my shirt tail too.
(hehehe)

I've stretched quite a few t-shirts at the front too.
Funny!

Looks like it's well made too. Let me know how you like yours Libby. I can see it will hold a lot of those little oak seedlings that I pull all year long. I have an apron that I wear sometimes that's handy. I look like a geek in it but who cares?

I drag a trug around. Even though it's bright purple, I still forget to carry with me around the garden and am constantly running back for it! I wear a carpenter's nail apron for tools, so this apron isn't that different for shape, but has a LOT MORE SPACE!

Good catch!

It looks interesting, but id sure be making a lot of trips to the compost/trash with that, lol! When I deadhead, weed, and cut down it seems I have A LOT of material, that nearly always fills the can.
A few years ago I went cherry picking up at this farm. They had these plastic buckets that you strapped on to hold the fruit as you picked it. I remember thinking that would be really nice for yard work etc., especially because all you had to do was rince it out.
I was thinking lately that it might be nice to have a tool belt for the garden tools. I always seem to be leaving my weeding knife, pruners, scissors, and little shovel around where I cant find them. Do any of you use a tool-belt for this?

CMK. I've got one of these. It's child's but it fits me fine.

Here is a link that might be useful: tool belt

My children gave me a 'tool box' one year that holds all kinds of neat stuff like a bulb planter, snips and clippers and pruners and trowels and things. You can sit on the box to weed.

I have a periwinkle color trug, but my fav are collapsible containers that are very lightweight and hold a lot of 'stuff' when I'm weeding and pruning. Fiskars made the small one, and I have a bigger one from Harbor Freight. They fasten with two toggle buttons into a collapsed round.

If the amount of work I did equaled all the gadgets I have, well.

Nell

That does look pretty cool, but I'm like CMK, I carry a 5 gallon bucket around, and even then, sometimes need to dump it on the compost and make another trip or else grab another bucket.

I guess I am not a neat gardener; when I deadhead, I just let em fall where they may.

The best thing I ever bought for myself was the large garden cart that attaches to the riding mower. I keep either a bucket or something else in it for smaller tools or seed packets. Long-handled tools fit in it and then I use the bare space remaining for clippings or plants I have pulled.
I have a pretty large space to get around and was walking myself to death just to get different tools as I needed them. Now, I just load the cart before I start.

That is a neat apron though and I do wear a gardening apron when I have one. I had two made from canvas but wore them out.

The tool belt is a neat idea. One is laying on the work bench right now.

The other day coming out of the garden with produce in my pulled up apron, I thought of my Grandmother. That is how she fed her chickens, held shelled corn in her apron and tossed it out on the ground to them. If I don't have on an apron, I use my shirt too, if I know it will be a heavy haul of stuff, I have a dishpan that I use.
