Farming tool systems may include a handle shaft and a farming tool that detachably connects to the handle shaft via a locking bit and a locking port that includes a socket. In some embodiments, a multi-head attachment may include one or more farming tools that slide laterally along a rail (perpendicular to the shaft length) and another farming tool that does not slide along the rail. In some embodiments, the farming tool(s) is a hoe. The farming tool(s) may be in the form of a wire that includes flat portions located inside a crimp to prevent the wire from rotating within the crimp and a forward portion that may be, for example, generally triangular in shape.

A gardening tool adapted to being attached to a rake, the rake having an elongated handle and teeth. The gardening tool comprises a blade, an attachment system, a prong attachment and a prong. The blade has a perimeter defined by a first and a second lateral edges as well as a first and a second transversal edges. The attachment system, which attaches the blade to the rake, is operative to secure the blade against the teeth of the rake. The prong attachment is located on the blade proximate to the first lateral edge. The prong, being pivotally attached to the blade through the prong attachment, may selectively adopt one of the following positions: a) extending primarily beyond the first transversal edge; b) extending primarily beyond the first lateral side; and c) being stored primarily within the perimeter.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to a garden implement that includes a handle, at least one tool member having a pair of flanges extending therefrom, each flange includes a flange bore and a pinion segment that share a common center, the pair of flanges have opposing parallel surfaces that each include the pinion segment, the opposing parallel flange surfaces are spaced apart by a first distance. Also included is at least a first fixing member coupled between the pair of flanges and the handle. The first fixing member includes a boss projecting along a longitudinal axis, the boss has parallel surfaces spaced apart by the first distance, a boss bore, and a curved rack segment projecting from the boss and configured to mesh with at least a portion of the pinion segment. Also included is a fixing shaft insertably received in at least one flange bore and the boss bore.

A tilling apparatus (10) has a head part (12), a blade arrangement (14), a motor (16) with a motion mechanism (64) housed within a housing (60) and an elongate handle (26). The blade arrangement (14) has a first blade (18′) and a second blade (18″) configured for reciprocating back-and-forth, up-and-down motion. The handle (26) has a tube portion (32) and a holding portion (28). A user holds the handle portion (28) and positions the blade arrangement (14) at a location within an area of the ground to be tilled. The user rests the weight of the apparatus (10) on the ground through the blade arrangement (14), actuates and moves the apparatus over the area to be tilled. An upward, resultant force from the ground on the blade arrangement (14) and a downward force from the weight of the apparatus allows the user to move the apparatus.
