How to Buy Long-Handled Tools For Gardon Working

Buy a garden rake that is appropriate for your height. Gardening rakes can break up clumps of soil, level the ground, and remove stones, leaves, and other debris from the surface of the soil. Choose a model that has a rake head made of one solid piece of metal that will not bend or break. Look for a rake with a handle that reaches the bridge of your nose, so that you will not have to bend or strain your back while using it. 
A standard gardening rake is 5 feet (152.4 cm) tall, which suits most gardeners. If you need a different size, shop online for specialty models.

Purchase a round-headed shovel. A sturdy shovel is necessary for digging and moving large amounts of soil. Of all of the options available, the round-headed shovel is the most versatile. Choose a model with a stainless steel head, which won't rust, and a sturdy wooden handle. 
Be sure that you can grip and maneuver the shovel comfortably before purchasing it.

Get a simple garden fork to cultivate soil. While a garden rake can break up soil, it does not dig deep enough to turn it. Buy a basic but sturdy gardening fork to aerate and replenish soil for planting. Choose a model made of rust-proof stainless steel.
Your gardening fork should be strong enough to break up thick clumps of soil.

Get long-handled loppers and shears. These cutting tools are necessary for maintaining trees, bushes, and shrubs. Loppers are great for trimming branches that are out of easy reach or too thick to cut with hand pruners. You can use shears for shaping bushes, shrubs, and hedges.
