Gather Your Nuts!

I bought a new tool/toy, the Weasel Nut Gatherer, and it is amazing!

For years I've been picking the acorns in my front yard up by hand and raking them throughout the fall, my darn OCD!  But no more, no sir!

This tool, in my opinion, is one of the greatest inventions ever created.  Simply roll it over the acorns with a little pressure and they pop right into the cylinder and emptying it just as easy. 

I bought the medium size option, which is perfect for acorns.  However, I will tell you that it doesn't pick up the acorn caps too well but those typically get sucked up with the mower. Also, I found that it needs to be emptied sooner rather than later, as some of the captured acorns tend to pop out when you try to pick up too many but not a show stopper at all.  The long handle is perfect, no more pending and sore back and no more crawling around the front yard.  Fairly certain the neighbors wonder about me...

Here she is, just arrived -

Here is about a 7-gallon bucket just about full of acorns that I picked up using this awesome toy for the first time and it only took about 30-minutes -


Thank you to the woman I saw using one of these on my walk, who was more than happy to step aside for 10-minutes and let me use/test her Weasel.  I placed my order immediately after my walk and it was here the next day.

This is a game changer!
