My dad bought one of these nifty tools for me last year when he was visiting and saw my weed infested flower beds and garden. It was perfect timing, as I was just starting to feel completely overwhelmed by the weeds and about to just give up on any sort of hope for a green thumb. Spending hours on my hands and knees just didn't seem worth it and I knew that the weeds would always come back.
Enter the Winged Weeder.
It has a long handle to allow for weed removal without bending over.
It really pulls out the whole weed, including the roots (which is more than I can say for my weak hands).
It is lightweight, Made in the USA, and invented by a farmer in Idaho.If your excuse for not growing a garden was that you didn't want to fight the weeds, now you have no excuse. Go for it! Plant something edible and reap the rewards.

kris, i NEED one of those! we just had our yard landscaped and opted for mulch throughout all the beds. we treated with weed preventer, but i know some are going to pop through! where can you buy this amazing tool?
I got mine at our local hardware store. My dad has one, and he's mostly a Home Depot and Lowe's shopper, so I bet they have them there too. They actually make weeding kind of fun.
Is this an As Seen On TV product? Because I swear I've seen this on TV before.
I don't have a garden yet, but this sounds like something I could use for when I get one.
so awesome! is it a HORRIBLE gift to get my husband?!? not hinting too badly right? i give him that as a gift, and he returns the favor with pulling out the weeds with it right?
ps. i love your blog-it's great and i love the great tips and fun stuff. sorry i don't comment on it more often!
