  The most useful tool I have is an azada.It looks like a wide flat-bladed pick axe and is great for turning over new ground or breaking up big clods and it doesn't hurt your back!

  Hi everyone!
  
  Its that time of the year again when I know I’ve got to do something with my garden, it’s a complete mess and I’m thinking of getting some sort of storage unit to put my lawnmower and the gardening tools etc. its not a bad sized garden, so I’m thinking like a double door shed..Any recommendations where I should look?
  
  Cheers!
  
  Katy

  Hi
  I was watching the episode screened 29 July 2011, where Monty used the double headed rake, but he called it a "Hand Hoe".
  I doubled checked what he said by rewinding (Sky+) and put the sub titles on.
  Never-the-less, not had any luck finding one.
  I've emailed the BBC in the hope of some help...

  I think the tools mentioned in this post is useful but quite old. Many gardeners are using garden machines like this http://skitech.org/gardenmachines today. I think life gardeners would be easier with machines.
