It can be used to turn any type of soil, even compacted soil, and is ideal for working the soil near plants without damaging their roots.

The fork is a complementary tool to the spade, designed to loosen, cultivate, and crumble the soil deeply, in small areas. It is much better suited than the spade for working clay or heavy and compact soils. It allows for soil loosening without turning it over, simply by pushing in the tines. Unlike a spade, this garden tool does not disturb the soil's microbial life and does not cut through earthworms, which are essential for soil health and fertility. It can be used to remove weeds, as well as certain vegetable plants (leeks, potatoes, carrots, turnips), or to divide large clumps of perennial plants. This fork consists of a handle made of sustainably managed eucalyptus wood (PEFC 100% certified), which is 15 to 20% more resistant than ash or beech wood, with a socket where the head with 4 forged and tempered iron tines is attached, on which the user can place their foot to drive the tines into the soil. The T-shaped handle provides a second point of support that allows the gardener to use their weight to easily drive the tool's head into the ground. The handle is compostable, and the metal head is recyclable. This tool, assembled in France, is guaranteed for 8 years by the manufacturer.
