Love Good Tools

| 3 Comments

I want one of these!

clipped from ahamodernliving.com

Now, how to extract all that gooey goodness from the inside, so that you can make your own pumpkin desserts, or a jack-o-lantern? Try the super versatile Soil Scoop (below.) The serrated edge and pointed tip are designed for a wide variety of garden tasks, from weeding to chopping to planting. But check it out; this tool will also be totally perfect for scooping out pumpkin guts, and even scraping all the stringy pieces off of the inside. The Soil Scoop even comes in both green and purple, so they’re not just cute, but easy to spot in your yard or tool chest.

    i have one of these somewhere, will
    send it to you if i ever find it…

    have you ever used a japanese digger?
    i think its called a hori knife.
    its a good strong trowel with a sharpish digging point and a serrated edge on the side for
    cutting roots.
    it is my favorite garden tool
    and i use it for everything!

    I just love weeping Willow trees. Only wish I had the room for one here.

Oh, hi there!

I was a garden blog pioneer, and began writing on this blog in 2003. Before that I had begun a garden website that has been at its own domain since 2006, Ilona's Garden.

I still love writing, gardening, and art after all these years, although travel and grandchildren have become a big part of my life, now.
