Get ready to embark on this year's gardening adventure with Martha Stewart's must-have tools. As she dives into her 101st book, Martha Stewart's Gardening Handbook: The Essential Guide to Designing, Planting, and Growing, Martha shared her go-to tools on the TODAY Show that will help you conquer any gardening hurdle.
With years of gardening expertise in vegetables, herbs, and flowers on her farm in Bedford, New York, Martha knows a thing or two about essential gardening tools. No matter if you're a seasoned gardener or just starting out, these Martha-endorsed tools will ensure you handle big and small tasks with ease.
Make your way to Martha's new QVC collection to discover her must-have garden essentials.
1. Gardening Gloves
According to Martha, gloves are a gardening necessity. Opt for a pair that offers a non-slip grip to safely perform tasks like weeding, digging, and more. The high-wrist design in Martha's QVC collection minimizes dirt getting inside while working.

2. Pruners
Pruners are your best friend when it comes to cutting branches, shrubs, fruit trees, and more. Martha praises these for being sharp, easy to use, and featuring covered handles for a non-slip grip. To maximize safety, pruners should clip shut to secure the blade.

3. Trowel
Trowels are small shovels used in gardening, and Martha considers them essential. Their primary purpose is to "dig and lift." They come in different sizes depending on the plants you are working with. Martha's new QVC collection offers two sizes for larger and smaller plants.
