I want to start it in late spring and have appropriate equipment.... I want to mow, trim, edge (hedges to), garden, plant, replant lawns... its hard for me to get organized knowing I have 7 mowers... i have a leaf blower, weed wacker and hedge trimmer.... if possible can someone please help me figure out how much i need to invest in rakes, hoes, wheel barrows ect. i would really appreciate it...

    Your best and most important piece of equipment will be a mower. With a decent range, quick turn radius. A good trailer to haul it in, with trimmer, and blower. A tool box. Rake, shovel, shears, and wheelbarrow, with 4 wheels.

    You won't need any hoes unless you're going to be doing garden tending/weeding.

    A rake and a wheelbarrow for getting the excess grass clippings would be useful.
