I try to sand & oil (linseed or other treatment) the wood in November, as well as sharpen, before I put them away.  I used a wheelbarrow today, that definitely needs some work on those handles.  What do y'all use on the wood?

I love crimson clover best for winter here in western NC for weed suppression,  nitrogen fixation,  pollinator attraction,  and beauty!  
This winter, I am adding barley with the clover.
