Tending to your garden offers the perfect opportunity to get outside in the fresh air and keep active, and it’s a way of improving both your physical health and your mental health.

Fiskars offers a range of technologically smart tools that are dedicated to making gardeners’ lives easier, so you can complete your gardening to-do list with ease.

2.Cutting-edge loppers. While lopping can be a physically challenging task, Fiskars has created the PowerGear™ X Loppers to make your life easier. Especially useful if you are clearing out and ending up with one of the larger Skip Sizes available! Some companies also offer a Skip Size Calculator so having the best tools will make filling those skips much a smoother job and making your life easier!

RRP from £54.99.
