The Kent & Stowe Garden Life Dutch Hoe is ideal for use in all soil areas. It is suitable for weeding in a push/pull motion in between plants and seedlings. The hoe has been handcrafted and offers traditional quality. The head is made from stainless steel and this product is 40% lighter than the K&S original stainless steel Dutch Hoe. It is practical and easy-to-use, offering the manoeuvrability and agility of a hand hoe with the upright luxury of a long-shafted tool. Perfect height for easy working, eliminates the need for bending, reducing back strain. The handle is made from beautiful FSC® approved ash wood that has been tapered for comfort. The Garden Life range has been specifically designed for gardeners who may struggle with heavier tools. They are perfectly sized compact versions of the Kent & Stowe range, shorter and lighter to allow easier use. Please note the size of the product.
