I shattered my right femur and after a year and half it was still a non union so my surgeon took it out and placed an implant. After 6 months the hinge broke so I needed another one and with this one, the concrete where it attached to the remaining femur broke so I needed another one and it was installed now 10 months, knock on wood no issues. But the hardest part is being hunched over a walker which has messed up my lower back fusion. I haven't worked on my raised beds in 3 yrs but this spring, I'm going to work on my entire garden. I cannot wait to get my hands in dirt again . I have been doing container gardening alot and got the same strawberry planters on a lazy susan. It's been a long hard road but I'm coming back and seeing all these new tools for disabled gardeners is a blessing.
I FINALLY managed to buy myself a home with land last year, and I'm excited to have gardens this spring, but I also live with ehlers-danlos. Been really worried about how I'll be able to kneel and plant or dig without dislocating my joints.
Thanks for being a presence to remind the garden community that sometimes we just need better TOOLS
Another thing that really helped a lot was focusing on building the best soil possible and creating a polyculture. This significantly increase the health of my plants and reduced pest pressure by more than 90% . The time savings were well worth the effort. It's a lot more fun now. Being at war with bugs was pretty stressful at times.
Last year I changed from growing only annual veggies and wildflowers. I started to include some perennial veggies and dwarf fruit trees that do well in my zone. I'm pruning the trees to make the fruit easy to pick.
Instant subscriber here, from this video alone!!! I have chronic pain and other illnesses so finding a page with someone who loves to garden and is also in pain….just brilliant
Thank you for sharing, many of us with pain chronic or not tend to not think about how to reduce it because it's ongoing no matter the level. Thanks again, I'll be watching you more for further guidance.
Love your tips: I’ve decided to pick up gardening and I’m 70 . I don’t want to purchase a lot of different tools. Any suggestions for the top 3 tools that are absolutely necessary ? Thanks in advance.
This 100%. We've been looking for raised beds for months because I cant kneel and hunch like that for long periods. I still do as thats how my current bed is set up but the back pain sucks so much
Thanks for sharing this important information thd for disabled , senior citizens and those with arthritis. I already have that stool and it’s a life saver! 😊❤

Thanks for sharing. I have a similar challenge. Two years ago I started making beds that are 3 fee tall. The extra foot really helps a lot.
