Let's talk about a pouch.

No I don't mean the physical evidence of one to many bowls of ice cream.  Who wants to talk about that? 

I found one of these convenient garden pouches by accident and then went looking to see if there were any others I liked.  I found one other that looked comfortable and efficient. 

One thing that I liked about both of these pouches is that they don't extend to your knees.  I'm sure that bending and stooping isn't a challenge for 20 somethings who have no tummy, but lets face it that's not every gardener.  It's actually probably not the majority of us.  The flexibility and physical effort necessary for keeping up our passion is enough of a challenge for a lot of gardeners and we don't need equipment that inhibits us.  These hang at just the right level for actively weeding, pruning, and clearing.

I also liked the easy empty features of these bags.  Any bag is going to fill up sooner than we would like if we have a big project to complete.  I know it's important to be able to dump our container and get right back to our task.  These bags both seem made to accomplish just that.  If you are looking for that perfect holiday gift for the gardener on your list consider one of these.  Don't forget to stuff it with a couple of my Share-Croppers seed envelope packages!
