Welcome to Garden Tech Month 2023 on T3! June is the first official month of summer which calls for warmer weather, brighter days and time spent outside in the garden. But if your outdoor space is looking tired, dull and uninviting, now is the time to give it a refresh to get it ready for the summer season.
During Garden Tech Month – which will be running from the 1st - 30th June – we’re going to be giving T3 readers a wealth of garden knowledge, advice, tips and tricks, reviews and much more. From maintaining to entertaining and beyond, we’ll be covering different garden-related topics each week so you can make the most out of your garden this summer.

From mowing the grass and trimming hedges, to watering your plants and smart gadgets that do the boring jobs for you, we’ve got you covered.
