It’s easy to let your gardening supplies get out of control. Few things are more frustrating than frantically searching for your fertilizer in a hot shed, or tripping over fallen rakes and open bags of soil. 

An organized space means less stress and more time to garden. Instead of searching for 20 minutes every time you need a tool, invest an afternoon to reorganize your garden tools so that you always know where everything is. Plus, it’ll prevent you from accidentally re-purchasing items you’ve already bought—saving you time and money in the long run. 

If you’re serious about your gardening time, I’ve gathered some of my favorite organizers to use to get your rakes, shovels, seeds, hoses, soil, and more all tidied up. You’ll be able to increase your usable space, make tools easier to find, and help create a stress-free season of gardening.

Crawford CMWBH-6 Wheelbarrow Hanger

<p>Amazon</p>

This hanger is a gamechanger for one of the most unwieldy garden tools: the wheelbarrow. Wheelbarrows take up a lot of floor space and often accidentally become a storage unit for other tools.

Despite its simple design, shoppers love to recommend these. “I know for certain that my dad has two of them,” shared one five-star reviewer. “As long as you install them to studs, they will last as long as your wheelbarrow does.
