Good morning, all!

Even for a suburban townhouse, I have all of these except the sickle and scythe (I remember my dad had those). But I also have an electric edger and a 14-ft chainsaw. How about you guys?

No hedge trimmer, no sickle, no tank sprayer and I have a hatchet not an axe. I could sub in a splitting maul. I have everything else.

I own all of the above except for:

Fencing - none needed in the area where I garden.

No Hedge Trimmer - no hedges to trim!

No Sickle and no Scythe - but Beau has those; Scythe is the long-handled version for when he doesn’t feel like weed whacking and goes ‘Old School.’ ;)

My ‘flower beds’ are all raised beds (16 total) with a few perennials and lots of cutting flowers - mainly Dahlia and Zinnia and Lilies. Any perennials I have were already here when I got here and are all shade-lovers around the back of the house. I am so OVER having a Perennial Garden to maintain. SO over it! Food First, LOL!

What on earth do you cut with a 14 foot chain saw, unless a California red wood tree?
