In this invention the tool embodies a flat surfaced plate whose perimeter
bristles with
hardened, sharpened cutting edges. The tool, because of the central, point-of
balance
placement of a handle stem designed to accept a variety of handle types and
lengths, lies
horizontally flush with the garden soil surface. Garden cultivation, ie.,
sowing and unwanted
vegetation control may be accomplished without lifting, chopping or excessive
bending or
stooping.
Weed control close to or even within the rows of cultured vegetation is aided
by the inclusion
of strategically placed hooking/pulling notches within the perimeter of the
tool's hardened and
sharpened cutting edges. The design and embodiment of the invention herein
described
allows even physically infirm persons to garden with relative ease.
