Braun Grape Hoe Test

Somewhere between putting in our endposts:
and putting in our earth anchors:
we were able to finally test the Braun Grape Hoe that Hans brought to our vineyard way back in early June.
A grape hoe is one of the essential tools after planting a vineyard because the weeds will come up in no time. We started taking care of the weeds in 2013 using a manual hoe. This is not an option. Then in 2014, we began weed wacking, which is not recommended, but did get the job done. A grape hoe will greatly aid our job of keeping the weeds at bay, so now we will have one more tool in our arsenal.
