Weeding Fork - Lifts the root out, not just the leaves

A thirty centimeter hand tool with a forked stainless steel tip. You set the fork beside the plant, tip the handle back and the taproot comes up whole. Made for joints between pavers, garden beds and lawn edges.

Why choose this weeding fork?

Weeds pulled off at the leaf are back within a fortnight. A narrow fork gets under the taproot, so the spot stays clear far longer. Because the tool is short, you work precisely between the plants you actually want to keep.

• Forked tip: slides in beside the root and lifts it in one movement.
• Stainless steel: stays sharp in damp soil and will not seize up in the shed.
• 30 cm length: short enough for close work, long enough for leverage.
• Contoured grip: a wide handle that does not twist in your hand as you lever.
• Light in the hand: you can hold it all afternoon without it feeling heavy.

One afternoon along the border and the joints are clear again.

Work after rain if you can, since damp soil releases the root far more easily. Angle the fork in beside the plant, push it under the crown and only then lever back. Rinse the steel after use and store it dry so the tip stays clean.
