a joy to use

Over 10 years ago when my mother died I inherited her trowel. The wooden handle is worn smooth with use and the blade is worn with many years use. I really enjoyed using it and thought about a copper one for a long time. 2 years ago I was given a copper trowel for Christmas. It slices through the ground so easily and gradually the handle is getting smoother with use. Half way through last summer I lost my copper trowel and had to go back to using my mother’s. Even taking out lettuces it didn’t slice through roots as easily as the copper one. I have now found my copper one where I thought if might be ….. and can confirm that it comes out of the compost heap after about 3 months just as good as it went in!!
