Great for No-Till Farmers
Fresh-picked for fans of the show
Six of our favorite tools for no-till work. The rest of the line-up — including a few that just came back in stock — is below, all with the exclusive NTG26 discount. See the final price in your shopping cart!
19" German Broadfork
Stand on the crossbar, rock it back, and loosen a bed 11 inches deep without turning a single shovelful. If one tool stands out for no-till, it's this one.
Digging Fork "The Bear"
Forged from a single piece of steel with a T-grip ash handle built to take a beating — compost, cover crop, root harvest, all with one heavy-duty fork.
Wide Chopping Hoe
A 9-inch forged head with real momentum behind it, for reshaping beds in a fraction of the strokes an ordinary hoe takes.
Hoopoe Hoe Cutter Mattock
A 4-lb forged head with a cutter blade on one side and a broad hoe blade on the other — for clearing overgrown ground, cutting roots, and digging where a lighter hoe gives up.
Scythe and Snath Set
Blade and snath together, ready to mow cover crops, field edges, and anywhere a mower can't reach. New to scything? Give it a proper sharpening before your first cut.
German Carbon Steel Spade
A 7-inch forged blade on a 35-inch knob handle — solid central-European steel with a robust head-to-handle attachment built for real digging, not just turning beds.
Back in stock
Just restocked
These sold out earlier in the campaign — they're back, and still covered by NTG26.
Heart-shaped Hand Hoe
A small, curved-handle hand hoe for close-in bed work — weeding and cultivating around transplants without disturbing what's next to them.
Small Trowel
A narrow forged trowel for transplanting and working in tight spaces between rows — the one that lives in your back pocket, not the tool bucket.
German Karst Hoe
A long hoe blade on one side, two pointed cultivating tines on the other — one tool for breaking compacted soil and opening clods without switching tools.
