The Square Foot Gardener Broadfork was inspired by Eliot Coleman’s 30” bed size. This broadfork is sized to be a perfect fit for single pass tilling in your beds.
Although the width of the step tube is 24” the handles are still mounted at our standard 20” width for comfortable broadforking. The Square Foot Gardener Broadfork tines cultivate a true 12" deep into the soil.
Strengths of this model include:
Ideal balance of lightweight and larger size
Smooth tilling with 6 tines
Wider footprint = less passes and lifts of the broadfork
Prepping and turning over beds
Soil aeration
Harvesting crops
Great for use in cultivated soil or already established beds
Technical Specs:
Width: 24" wide round step tube
Tines: 6 tines at a true 12" length from the step tube
Weight: 14 lbs with wood handles, 17 lbs with steel handles
-----------------------------------------
Choose your desired handle style from our ash wood, alloy steel or the deluxe combo set to use both styles interchangeably in your Treadlite Broadfork.
HANDLE RECOMMENDATION: The steel handles are preferred with The Square Foot Gardener Broadfork due to greater leverage in the soil with the wide footprint of the broadfork. The steel handles will provide superior strength in all soil types and for all uses from breaking new ground to cultivation and harvest.
*If you prefer the ash wood handles for a lighter tool, they will preform well with care.
