Here are a few more ideas:
To go with Linda's cart for sitting on and scooting
up and down the aisles...mine was the type with a
wooden body. Vernon rebuilt mine with a larger body
which gives me room for tools, even a few holes in the
front for holding things. Also added a "golf"
umbrella to the cart. It cost less than $6.00 and now
my shade travels with me.
Pad the handle of tools with foam pipe insulation.
The stuff is cheap and easy to add or replace as
needed.
We have taken the walkways out of a couple of our
beds and added landscape fabric covered with mulch.
No weeding, mowing or weedeating. This is one of the
things we plan to do more of. It is working well this
year.
