Hello TUGgers,

We got a donation of tools from a local hardware store that closed down. East enders might know Tracy's Hardware at Main & Danforth, one of the more fun & quirky hardware stores in town! 

We have:
Long handled, round point shovels
Short handled, round point shovels
Short handled, square point shovels
Rakes (the rigid kind)
Some replacement handles

Preferably these will go to community gardens or farms that don't already have a budget for tools. It is also helpful if you can pick them up from the Main & Danforth area (although we may be able to arrange a drop-off to Scarborough or Etobicoke). James and I are heading out to the Downsview Farmers' Market on Saturday, so that area is a possibility too if you reply quickly!

Please let me know what tools you'd like and if you have any capacity to pick them up. 

A good weekend to all!
Rhonda

How very nice of them. 

Here’s a weird fact:
Pointy, spade-shaped shovels are “shovels”
Flat shovels are “spades”.

Go figure…
