Strawberries are easily my favorite plant to grow, and one of my garden goals for this year was to increase my already-substantial empire. The problem was that the place where I planned to put the new strawberries had hard-as-a-rock clay beat down all summer by our landscaper’s skid-steer. I literally couldn’t get a shovel into it.
Then—because Instagram ads know everything about you—I heard about a magic shovel designed by an 85-year-old who wanted to be able to keep gardening.
It’s really expensive, looks like this…
…and works like a dream.
I could not believe how much easier it was for me to dig planting holes, and anyway I finally moved all my strawberry starts from one side of the house to the other.

I am starting to wonder if it’s ever going to snow here, or even freeze, really.
