Ooh! Ooh! This sounds fun. I put some time into this when I should have been working, so I hope it helps.
1) Pruners - $20.49
This will be your most used tool. Eventually, you can upgrade into Felcos or Bahcos, but right now just get these Coronas. They're honestly a better size for hobby gardeners (fit right in your pocket), and the're very high quality for the price.
2) Your First Gardening Book - $17.06
Gardening Without Work by Ruth Stout. It's simple and gives you a general plan that really does work very well. It's a must for beginning gardeners, imho. You can find just about any other information you need on the internet (for now). Very little maintenance required, including fertilizing, weeding, applying pesticides, etc. (In a nutshell, the main step involves putting down an 8" layer of mulch...).
If you want to go with a more traditional raised bed setup, you should buy Mel Bartholomew's Square Foot Gardening. It's a fantastic back yard gardening book, as well, but the methods are kind of pricey and less sustainable. Still, it's a great system for growing a lot of food in limited space and it was the first book I used.
3) Indestructible Garden Trowel - $15.99
This will be your second most used tool. This particular model is about as indestructible as it gets short of this bad boy. You'll use it for digging holes for transplanting, mostly. Don't buy a cheap one or it will bend or break or both.
4) Fertilizer - $7.83 + $11.06 = $24.26
I chose cottonseed meal because that's what Ruth Stout recommends using (the rest of the nutrients in her system come from the giant mounds of mulch). Apply as she indicates.
I also added some Fish Emulsion Liquid Fertilizer because I love the stuff. It's a great way to add some extra nitrogen (and just a little P & K) mid season to your veggies or even to your compost pile when it gets carbon heavy. The stuff I have right now stinks, but the plants love it and it's easy to apply if you have a watering can.
Make sure you tailor your fertilizer to whatever system you're using, though. Don't fertilize like Ruth if you're not using her mulch based system. If you're using Square Foot Gardening, you won't be fertilizing at all, but you will be using lots of peat, vermiculite, and (different kinds of) compost. Etc, etc, etc.
5) Work Gloves - $10.97
These are specifically for women, but there's a button to switch to men's if that's you. You won't wear them all the time, but you'll be happy you have them when you need them. Notice that this comes with 6 pairs of gloves. I misplace gloves all the time, so having several is handy (hehe).

Total: $88.77

Notes:
The other reason there are no seeds on my list is because I don't recommend buying them on Amazon. I've had bad experiences every time I've tried it. If you need seeds, go with a good seed dealer, like Johnny's Selected Seeds, Burpee, etc, or find a good nursery in your area.
_____
TL;DR: Pruners, a book to get you started, a durable trowel, fertilizer that is specific to your growing plan, and some gloves. Enjoy!
Ah I see. Well here are some things on my list, I think it's different from gardener to gardener.
seed starter with heat
Kevlar sleeves for prickly plants and tomatoes that make me itch
seed stamp for planting
square foot gardening book
knee pads
garden clogs
gloves I go through gloves like crazy!
plant markers
gardening set just some basic tools
bucket organizer
of course there are lots of other things that you might want like seeds, tomato cages, kits for building your own raised beds they are all available from amazon, so it really depends on what you like and want to grow. I don't know if this helps you any? Maybe plan out your garden and what you want to grow then you'll know what you need?

[These type of gloves] (https://www.amazon.com/15196M-Seamless-Nitrile-Coated-Gloves/dp/B00558V31M/ref=sxin_3_ac_m_rm?ac_md=9-4-bml0cmlsZSBjb2F0ZWQgZ2xvdmVz-ac_d_rm&keywords=Nitrile+gloves&pd_rd_i=B00558V31M&pd_rd_r=3bbf679c-92de-444c-ac20-3ce21183f350&pd_rd_w=nvXL7&pd_rd_wg=IqTWd&pf_rd_p=d1a6ea92-24ed-409e-8e33-97dc5a8de815&pf_rd_r=1GBKKFCNVYCE95FMJY45&qid=1567127595&s=gateway) work great for me, but I have to change them every 2-3 months of use. I like to cut the fingertips off mine, my crewmates keep them on.
Extra cutting boards are pretty good to have in the house.
Protection gloves are a must for gardening. Or, Digging claws
I'll link a few that I've bought. I've used all of them for different things, and there are somethings I just won't use 'em for after. I'll always have a few to rotate and wash.
I haven't minded paying the price for these as they've saved my hands throughout most of the shit I've handled. And I get to continue to use 'em/share 'em when doing my own work or helping others. The touch-screens I've loved a lot with the Zebra, but I try and be careful with them with moisture/sharp objects since they seem to deteriorate quite fast when not paying attention.
There hasn't been a pair that is perfect for everything, but because I can bring these and leave 'em in a box in the back I just switch out for whatever I need at the time. Right tool for the right job.
I smollified this link for yall. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071RYH84R

1 pair of left and right clawed (for fiteen bucks, so you're still getting a nice hard fucking)
hey man welcome to bushcrafting so far you have a pretty decent list but i'd like to give you suggestions from what I learned throughout the years.
knife- good choice for chopping and batoning but too much blade to use whittling and making small cuts. generally you want to use either large blade/small blade or axe/ small blade combos.
backpack- 65L is very overkill unless your doing 5 day+ with clothing for every day. I would suggest something in the range of 45L max.
compass- do you know the area your going to or do you really know how to use it? I know every person says to just have one just in case but if they already know their terrain or dont even know how to use the dang thing its just wasting space.
ferro rod- generally stay away from things like multi use gear. also just from my experience you want a long rod (5"+) for more surface area to generate more sparks for an easier chance to catch fire.
pillow- I would not use hammock pillows for on ground sleeping. they're extremely small and have almost no support on the count of your body is in a curling position in a hammock. I would suggest something like an inflatable pillow for you to adjust for your support and then covering it with something like a shemagh or t-shirt.
first aid- your going to get more cuts, scrapes and burns so I would buy extra of that stuff, but I would also add some quick clot just for the off chance of having a serious injury out in the field. and also some moleskin for your feet and pain relievers. and dont forget sunscreen.
now for some additions for your gear loadout.
saw and stay away from those stupid hand chainsaws
cooking vessal
cowhide gloves
Again; welcome and I hope you enjoy yourself and grow with your errors out in the field.
It sucks when your work doesn't provide good tools. That said, they're pretty cheap if you want to grab yourself a couple pairs.
:D reminds me of when I got started almost exactly.
I have that exact sluice and still use it for test panning when I do test pan. I also bought a 48" Keene hand sluice, which I use all summer long for classifying the material from my dredge.
Each person has their preference in gloves. I do not like to spend a lot of money on gloves. But need something that still has grip when my hands are wet. I like these types of gloves personally. They will last around 2 weeks 8-10 hours a day in the water with the dredge.
I would say bring some Jet Dry or Dish Soap if you get super fine gold it will float right out of your pan. Extra tweezers and maybe snuff bottles.. You will eventually decide which kind of pan you prefer, I personally have come to the conclusion 1 LARGE Green pan, and one smaller black pan. Throw some lead shot into that paydirt and practice bending over in awkward positions because when you are panning at a creek or a river its never ideal unless you just get in. For shoes I buy whatever pair of shoes are $10 at walmart because they're going to get destroyed.
Good luck!

Got a good glove recommendation? Every dang pair of leather gloves I've had for decades succumbs to glochids. (I just got these so I can transplant some overgrown spiky beasts but not sure how they'd hold up against those tiny buggers: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01K119VU2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_A-KBzbRAT2N8J )

Never had a tank I couldn't get open with minimal effort when wearing these. Do yourself a favor, don't scratch your atty's with pliers and get a pair of these gloves.
This goes out to all the Griffin and Moonshot owners.

Something like this. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00558V31M I've grabbed some pretty jagged stuff and not had any cuts. You can get them at Walmart and whatnot as well.
Nitrile garden gloves. I've had my 3 pack for years. I just turn them inside out, wash with dish soap, then leave them in the sun to dry. Good as new. It is just part of my after gardening hand wash routine now. Takes a minute and you have a fresh pair every time. These are women's but I've loaned them out to a few big guys who had no fit problems.

Now when you said no patter or logo you meant for just the knitted right?
these may do the trick.
