Linda Park is the Watering & Irrigation Editor at YardToolLab. Her path to this role began in landscape architecture, where she spent years drafting irrigation plans for commercial properties. Dissatisfied with the gap between blueprints and real world performance, she started testing equipment on her own home projects. Seven years ago, she shifted focus entirely to hands on evaluation, designing and installing over a dozen drip systems for friends and neighbors. Today, she reviews garden hoses, sprinklers, timers, and drip components with an emphasis on long term durability and practical ease of use. Readers trust Linda because she tests gear on actual lawns and garden beds, not in a lab. She reports what breaks, what leaks, and what truly saves water. No hype. Just honest results from real yards.
