Gardening Gifts for Dad

PRINT

Father’s Day is June 16th, so there is still plenty of time to get Dad something that he will really love. Let’s face it, millions of fathers love to garden or, at the very least, they love to putter around in the yard. Here are some gifts that Dad is sure to appreciate.

 

The Best Gardening Shoes, Ever

He doesn’t complain about it, but Dad’s feet get tired when he is mowing the lawn, digging in the garden and stomping around in the yard. Keep Dad’s feet from taking a beating by getting him LawnGrips Men’s Classic shoes. These high-quality work shoes make landscaping, mowing and all other outdoor work safer, easier and more comfortable. The patented Grip-N-Go outsole provides great traction on freshly cut grass while easily shedding mud and clippings. The molded rubber overcoat keeps water on the outside so feet stay dry. And with an upper made of double-stitched, water resistant, full-grain leather, LawnGrips Men’s Classic shoes are tough and long-lasting. They come in khaki color with a hook and loop closure for easy-on and easy-off convenience. Available at www.lawngrips.com.

 

Have Project, Will Video

Dads love high-tech toys, right? Here’s a great way for Dad to document all of the hard work he does around the house. The new Timelapse ProjectCam from Wingscapes offers the ultimate way to showcase projects from beginning to completion. The innovative, high-resolution digital camera takes photos at set time intervals, and then it automatically converts the photos into a timelapse video that can be shared on YouTube and Facebook. It’s the perfect way to watch a remodeling project or a garden grow in fast forward on a computer. Timelapse ProjectCam is rugged and weatherproof, so it can be left unattended outdoors without worry. Set-up is easy and requires no tools. Timelapse ProjectCam available at www.wingscapes.com.

 

Now Dad Can Supercharge His String Trimmer

Dad loves his gas-powered string trimmer, but sometimes the line doesn’t feed properly and sometimes the string isn’t tough enough to cut heavy weeds. Now there’s a new kit that will supercharge gas-powered string trimmers — turning them into lean, clean, cutting machines. The Aeroflex Universal Kit replaces a standard trimmer’s monofilament line with a unique four-line blade cutting system. The blades are made of high-strength copolymers, so they last up to 50 times longer than traditional nylon monofilament line. The aerodynamically engineered cutters are tough and durable enough to slice through grass, heavy weeds and vines that string lines can’t even begin to cut.

 

The Aeroflex Universal Kit– which includes the cutting head with two sets of four heavy-duty blades (a total of eight blades), instructions and all needed hardware sells for $24.97 at all Lowe’s stores.
