Nut Wizard Harvesting Tool

With the Nut Wizard Harvesting Tool, one is able to pick up nuts, fruit, pine cones, etc. that are lying on the ground without having to bend over. As the tool (consisting of a 4-foot-long handle attached to a football-shaped wire basket) rolls over the objects, the spring-wire head traps them inside. The basket is emptied either by spreading apart two of the wires to let the objects drop out or placing it over an optional ‘wire dumper’ atop a 5-gallon box or pail and turning it. The Nut Wizard is available in five sizes to accommodate objects ranging from 3/8 inch to 4 inches in diameter.

Cost: $45-$54
