Environmentally Friendly Gardening Tools That Protect The Soil and Your Plants
From the home of Kaarigar, the trusted brand for Copper, comes a new range of copper alloy garden tools, when used in cultivating the soil, would lead to healthier plants and be more beneficial to the Earth.
An early 20th century visionary, Viktor Schauberger, was a forester by training. He had opportunities granted to very few today – he could observe Nature in her raw state, undisturbed by human technologies. In the mountains where he wandered, some areas had hardly ever been visited by humans before. He learned from what he saw, the ways of Wise Nature, as he called it. He was convinced after experimentation that crops cultivated with copper ploughshares had larger healthier yields and fewer pests. He believed:
- that using iron or steel implements to work the soil was detrimental
- Everything in Nature is in movement, moving towards either growth or decay
- Metallic iron exposed to the weather, will rust and decay in a relatively short time
- There is no logic of trying to encourage plants to grow using a material that is in a process of decay
- Copper is much more stable, and it is not in a process of decay
- Copper actively resists harmful bacteria.

Although they are called Copper Gardening Tools, our tools are made with a copper alloy called Kansa (Bronze). Kansa is considered a Healing Metal in Ayurveda and consists of 90% Copper and 10% Tin. The handles are made using Pine Wood.
Since pure copper is a soft metal, it needs to be mixed with another metal to give it the hardness.
Our Copper Gardening Tools are handmade from scratch. The process includes Sand Casting, Sanding, Polishing, Fitting wooden handles. Handmade products carry good energy but no two pieces will be similar or perfect like machine made ones. We ensure that these imperfections will not affect the performance of our products. If you seek perfection, this is not your collection. Thank you.
You may find handmade imperfections but we ensure that these will not harm the performance or the longevity of the product. Should you have any concerns/comments, please write to us at contactus@kaarigarhandicrafts.com
Use
Our Gardening Tools are ideal for use in vegetable and flower gardens and raised flower beds.
Our tools are not suited for use on stony soil or in clearing trees, bushes and root systems.
Copper Is Not As Hard As Steel
A word of caution.
To provide the benefits of copper we use 90% copper in our gardening tools (the rest is tin). This makes copper tools softer that identical steel tools. Our Copper Gardening Tools could bend with use but can be bent back to shape. We guarantee our tools for 2 years from breakage under normal use.
Please do not use these for very heavy soil work.
