Wooden rakes have been around for a long time. Since iron implements were very
expensive in colonial time many tools were made almost entirely from wood. Early farms
or even colonial gardens may have benefited from these wooden tools. Made entire of
wooden parts, these hand made wood rakes make wonderful gifts for all occasions,
Whether for birthdays, anniversaries, mothers day, Christmas or any other special
occasion, this unique old fashion item will be a wonderful addition to any household.
Hand made by a local company (me) in New Hampshire USA. Let's start buying products
from America again.
