ABSTRACT:
A garden tool which allows the user to rake, cultivate, thatch, weed and aerate the soil is disclosed. The tool comprises a handle and a work head which includes a number of partially rotatable earth-working elements. One end of each element is specifically adapted to travel the surface of the soil to sever weeds and to cultivate and aerate the soil. The opposite end of each element is adapted to act as a rake for raking and thatching grass lawns. The rake side of the tool can also be used to weed, cultivate and aerate by causing the tips of the elements to penetrate the soil and work it loose.
