Garden Tools: Gloves

Gloves

*Gloves should be durable but not too bulky, especially for working with seeds or transplanting seedlings.

*Fit is important, as poorly fitting gloves can cause blisters or result in accidents from slipping off.

*Fabrics that are water-resistant, but also breathable, will help keep hands cool and comfortable.

*Longer cuffs protect wrists and forearms from scratches and keep soil from getting in.

*Store gloves out of sunlight, away from water, and safe from insects.
