The Burgon and Ball BoronGreen Mid Handled Fork is a high performance gardening tool designed for strength, comfort and sustainability. Endorsed by the Royal Horticultural Society, this extended reach fork delivers professional quality performance while meeting modern environmental standards.
Ideal for cultivating, loosening soil and preparing planting areas, this mid handled fork is especially useful for raised beds and deeper borders where additional reach makes gardening easier and more comfortable. The mid length handle allows gardeners to work further into beds without over stretching, reducing strain on the back and shoulders during repetitive tasks.
The fork head is made from boron steel, a material that is stronger, tougher and more durable than traditional carbon steel without adding extra weight. Boron steel also retains its edge for longer, ensuring consistent performance even when working in compacted or challenging soil conditions. The steel used is made from 80% recycled sources, believed to be a first in UK garden tools, making this a responsible choice for environmentally conscious gardeners.
Specially hardened and tempered tines are designed to withstand tough cultivating and soil aeration tasks. The pointed tips slice easily into soil, helping break up clods and improve soil structure with minimal effort. A precision forged tang is set at an ergonomic angle to support natural hand positioning, improving control and reducing fatigue during longer gardening sessions.
A tough green powder coated finish protects the steel from rust while giving the tool its distinctive BoronGreen appearance. This coating helps extend the life of the fork and keeps it looking smart season after season.
The handle is crafted from FSC certified white ash wood, selected for its strength, resilience and comfortable grip. A refined design detail includes a dark wood inlay at the end of the handle featuring the Burgon and Ball ampersand, reflecting the brand’s commitment to craftsmanship. A twisted paper hanging cord allows for tidy storage in sheds or on tool racks.
As with all RHS endorsed BoronGreen tools, this mid handled fork is covered by a 25 year guarantee, offering long term confidence and exceptional value. Whether upgrading your own gardening tools or choosing a thoughtful gift, this fork combines durability, comfort and sustainability in one versatile tool.
