This model has 4 tines (34 cm), suitable for heavy soil. The handle length is 110 cm.
Cultivating soil without digging! The Broadfork is a variation on the traditional digging fork with a well-thought-out ergonomic and extremely strong design. This allows you to remain upright during cultivation without straining your back or legs. No more back pain from heavy digging! This makes the broadfork very suitable for vegetable gardens.
Instead of turning the soil, the broadfork loosens it very well. In this way,
soil life and soil structure are not disturbed, but the soil is still well
prepared for sowing or planting. Due to the special curved shape of the tines, the
fork has a large leverage effect, allowing clumps to loosen and crumble easily.
Further applications: aerating around trees, aerating the compost heap, removing woody "suckers".
How does it work? Both handles ensure good weight distribution; insert the fork into the spot to be aerated, and press it into the earth with one foot, using your own weight. First pull backward, then forward, then left and right, shake out any weeds and throw them aside for the compost heap.
PLEASE NOTE: BEFORE USE, ALWAYS SOAK THE HANDLES INCLUDING THE FORK IN WATER OVERNIGHT (OR LEAVE OUTSIDE IN THE RAIN) TO ACHIEVE THE NECESSARY TOUGHNESS!
