The History of the Lawnmower: From the Caveman to the Modern Gardener
Let's take a brief look back in history. The first lawnmower was invented in 1830 by Edwin Budding, an English engineer who was probably tired of seeing unkempt grass. Since then, we've gone from manual mowers to gasoline-powered, and now to electric and battery-powered. Each evolution has brought new pros and cons, but one thing remains constant: our need for a perfectly mowed lawn.
