Grampa's Weeder - Ergonomic Stand Up Weed Puller Tool

Grampa's Weeder: The Original Stand-Up Weed Puller Tool with a Long Handle

Grampa's Weeder is the Original Stand-Up Weed Remover Tool that has been pulling out weeds and their roots for over a century. This ingeniously designed weed removal tool was invented in 1913 in Seattle, Washington, and quickly became a must-have for gardeners in the Great Northwest to get rid of weeds quickly and easily.

Product Description: How to Use Grampa's Weeder: 1) Center the Tool Over the Weed: Simply place the tool over the center of the invasive plant. 2) Press Into the Ground: Press down on the footpad straight down into the ground, then remove your foot. 3) Lean the Handle: This is where the magic happens! Lean the tool towards the footpad. Do not lift the tool or twist. Only when you lean the tool will the forks pinch around the weed.

Grampa's Story: Production of the stand-up weeder stopped in 1941 so that all available metal could be put towards the war effort. Unfortunately, once the war ended, manufacturing of this wonderful weed removal tool never resumed. This all changed in 1999 when Greg, my husband, found my mother's strange-looking garden tool in her garage. Once he figured out what it was and how it worked, he was hooked! The next thing we knew, Grampa's Gardenware Co. was born, and we were hand-making this turn-of-the-century weed puller tool in that very same garage. We are thrilled to introduce Grampa's Weeder to gardeners everywhere.

What Makes Our Products Unique: Grampa builds durable, long-lasting garden tools that are simple and easy to use. Grampa's Weeder allows you to effortlessly pull weeds standing up, which saves your back and knees. No harmful chemicals are needed. This ingenious tool has been around for over 100 years.

Why We Love What We Do: We love seeing the look on people's faces when they use the tool for the first time and say, "Where has this been my whole life!?" Introducing Grampa to gardeners all across the world is one of the most rewarding feelings, and we love showing everyone this ingenious old-fashioned tool from 1913.

American Family Owned Business: Our family is proud to continue Grampa's journey for generations to come!

Materials and Quality: The weeder boasts a long, resilient bamboo handle, renowned for its strength-to-weight ratio. The powder-coated steel head offers a high degree of durability and rust resistance. Each weeder undergoes rigorous quality checks to ensure that the union between bamboo and steel is seamless, providing a reliable tool.

Capacity and Limitations: Designed for a variety of common garden weeds, the tool works best at removing weeds in softer soil types. The weeder excels in removing weeds with a tap root. However, it may struggle with particularly large or woody roots that exceed the grasp capacity of the steel claws. For soils that are overly rocky or dense clay, additional effort may be required to penetrate and secure the weed for pulling.
