Tools and Equipment for December

Try coating your snow shovel with a "no-stick" cooking spray; the snow slides right off. Recoat as needed.
Don't store your lawn seeder/fertilizer. Use it to spread sand or sawdust on drives and walkways.
Consider purchasing garden tools, books, clothing, or a gift certificate to a nursery or garden center to give as a gardener's holiday gift for that special gardener in your life.
A home weather station that includes a minimum-maximum thermometer, a rain gauge, and a weather log is a splendid gift for a gardener, and it can be put to use at once.
Ask Santa for a special plant or garden tool for yourself.Begin a collection of your favorite perennials, and request a new plant every year. If you garden indoors, start a collection of succulents that can be added to yearly.
Check belts and spark plugs and buy replacements, change the oil, sharpen the blades or tines, and clean off dirt and plant debris so equipment will be ready to go when you need it next spring.
Drain the fuel tank and run the lawn mower or tiller engine dry before putting the machine away for the winter.
Clean and sharpen lawn and garden tools, and store them in a dry storage area. A light coating of oil on exposed metal surfaces will prevent rusting.
