Rising inflation has caused many families to reconsider how and where they should get their groceries. One of the most economical ways to feed a family is to grow as much of one’s own food as possible. You may still need to take trips to the store for items such as eggs and milk, but you’d be surprised by the number of dishes you can make from your own produce. If you’re looking to start or expand your home garden, here are some tools that will make gardening so much easier.

Sometimes it can be hard to tell how much water is in the soil just by looking, and checking each plant by hand may take a lot of time. With an electronic meter, you can quickly assess the moisture content of your soil without having to dig a hole each time.

Of all the tools that make gardening easier, the broadfork is possibly the most versatile. The broadfork is a multipurpose tool with applications in harvesting root crops, aerating soil, and plowing. It’s basically a large digging fork that you can stand on to push it down into the earth. When you pull back, you push up all the dirt in that area.
