Burgon & Ball's starring TV role

Published: 29 June 2016
Garden tool manufacturer Burgon & Ball has been enjoying its continued starring role in ITV's Love Your Garden, where Alan Titchmarsh gives gardens a new lease of life.
Burgon & Ball's starring TV role
In the sixth year of the show, Burgon & Ball tools are once again being used to tackle the gardening tasks. To meet the demands of a hectic filming schedule at locations all over the country, the Sheffield-based manufacturer despatched a range of tools including digging forks and spades, Groundbreaker spades, hand tools, pruning knives, Ground Master multi tools, Kneelo kneelers and rakes.

This year the team even get their own personal trowels. After learning that the presenters face the perennial problem of hand tools 'going walkabout', Burgon & Ball suggested that Alan, David, Katie and Frances each have their own trowel, with their name engraved - to avoid any confusion!

After a previous series, the team wrote on the Love Your Garden blog: "Burgon & Ball has supplied every show of the series with some of the finest wooden-handled spades, forks and hand tools known to man. We certainly put them through their paces during the build and they didn't let us down."

This year the show kicks off in Hull, where a 90 year old great-grandmother, no longer able to tend her once-beautiful front and back gardens, sees her outdoor space transformed. By the end of the show, the former Land Girl and ballroom dancing devotee is the proud owner of a beautiful plot where she can garden safely once again.
