Enjoying the backyard for the limited summer months that we get here in Canada can be difficult if you don’t have much time to care for it. These backyard tools will help save time and make your BBQ parties the bashes of the season.

Whirlwind Washing

Clipping laundry to the clothesline can be a time-consuming chore. A self-clipping clothesline, like the CordoClip – saves time hanging wet clothes so that you can get back to planning your party.

Lovely Lawn

Keeping grass in check is a full time job. Black N Decker’s 3 in 1 Mower converts from mower to trimmer to edger and runs on batteries for easy start up. It’s also lightweight – an easy 10 lbs.

Shape Shifting Shovel

Working on the new garden requires a lot of different tools. Finding one item that covers all of those tools means less trips to the garden shed. The 4-in-1 Divi Shovel by Yanko Design is a handy, easy to use dual shovel, hoe and broom.

Delicious Drinks

Serving drinks during a party, or keeping them outside while you’re relaxing, invites all sorts of pests to flutter around and land in the yummy juice. A closed drink dispenser with a pour spout will save your beverages from these uninvited guests. Try the Del Sol Trade Double Tier Beverage Dispenser from Bed Bath and Beyond or Canadian Tire’s Three-tiered Beverage Dispenser – both are handy if you want to provide options.

One-Handed Seasoning

Trying to season your food while holding a plate full of food is the BBQ party juggling act of the season. A pepper grinder that can be handled with one hand will make all of your guests happy. The PepperBall One-Handed Pepper Grinder looks like a rabbit and seasons like a dream.
