Children’s Gardening Gloves Recall
Hello Fellow Gardeners,
Many of us gardeners buy little gardening sets for our kids and grandkids so they can learn and help out in the garden. That’s why I wanted to let you all know about this voluntary recall from Troy-Bilt…
The “Budding Gardener Complete Gardening Set” has been recalled due to the fact that there is harmful lead in the gloves.
Thankfully, there has been no one injured so far, and we at the Daily Weeder want to keep it that way–so if you bought a set for your child, or received one as a gift– make sure to check it out! Let your friends know about it too!
This is what the gloves look like…
What to do!

“Consumers should take these gloves away from children immediately. Troy-Bilt is directly contacting consumers who purchased these gloves and will be providing each consumer a self-addressed stamped envelope so that the gardening gloves may be returned to Troy-Bilt directly. Additionally, a kid-size gardener’s apron shall be provided at no cost to each customer as an accommodation and in exchange for the gardening gloves.”
