The only downside to being in the garden is working under the damaging rays of the sun. Vicki and I have found many ways to work around this and one of our favorite solutions is this fabulous shirt from Coolibar. It’s called the Adventure Shirt and it comes in several fun colors. (Check out these shirts at different times of the years, as the colors change). It’s breathable, with ventilation panels under the arms and along the sides. There is mesh lined venting at the back shoulder. Most importantly, it is UPF 50+ so you have full protection on top as you plant and harvest your vegetables. At $85 we think this is a bargain.
Please note that the UPF doesn’t last forever. About every 10 washes, add a box of Sun Guard Laundry Treatment Sun Protectant to keep the sun protection potent.
