I have several garden tools that as a woman make gardening easier for me as I don't have as much strength as a man. They are ratcheting pruners both the hand held and the large size with extendable handles to give you extra reach without getting on a ladder. The ratcheting take less hand strength allowing you to work longer without hand, back or neck strain. I also have a D-handle spear head shovel that makes digging much easier for a woman. One other item I have is a metal frame kneeling bench for the garden it has handles to help you get up. I have used this a lot after a back injury so I could garden. I am a senior gardener not really physically challenged other than age and like tools that make it easier for me to garden using less physical exertion.
If you want to be happy for a lifetime plant a garden!
Faith is the postage stamp on our prayers!
