PinkLady Gardeners’ Soap

Most of the items that we, at Harvesting History, sell have special stories, because we don’t choose products unless we use the products and know the manufacturers.

Pot Maker

Based on a centuries old design, the Harvesting History Potmakers are created by a local wood carving craftsman who makes these pot makers by turning ancient hardwood poles on his lathe. He carefully polishes each piece to remove any splinters and then lovingly oils each one.

Garden Handrakes

This is the ideal tool for raking around the bases of rose bushes, border shrubs and in perennial beds without harming the plants. The long metal tines only spread to a width of 4” which allows them to access nearly every area.

Plant Stakes

These stakes are made of zinc with a label that can be permanently etched or temporarily labeled. An artist’s grease pencil is included with each set of 10 markers.
