Description
"While I practice and recommend no-dig I still couldn’t do without my spade, invaluable for planting trees, shaping beds, chopping waste and removing parsnips and larger perennial weeds. Copper or stainless steel are well worth the money as a smooth rust-proof surface means less soil sticks to the blade and less effort is needed. I find my copper spade stays sharp and moves very easily through the soil, while the Burgon & Ball digging spade is a high quality yet more affordable option." - CD
