GUERILU Broadfork 5 Tines – The Best Broadfork for Healthy, Aerated Soil

The GUERILU 5-tine broadfork is an innovative gardening tool designed to loosen and aerate the soil without turning it over. Recognised as the best broadfork by VELT, it is the ideal choice for organic gardening and anyone looking to improve soil health naturally.

Designed by gardener and physiotherapist Guerrino together with blacksmith Lucien, the GUERILU broadfork combines efficiency, comfort and durability. Its ergonomic design allows you to work faster with less effort while preserving the natural structure of the soil.

Why choose the GUERILU 5-Tine Broadfork?

Unlike a traditional digging fork or spade, the GUERILU broadfork loosens the soil without inverting it. This preserves the natural soil layers and protects beneficial microorganisms, fungi, earthworms and other essential soil life.

The result is healthier, better-aerated soil that absorbs water more efficiently and encourages stronger root development.

This makes the GUERILU broadfork the perfect tool for organic, regenerative and no-dig gardening.

Benefits of the GUERILU Broadfork

Ergonomic and comfortable to use

The 1-metre handle acts as a lever, significantly reducing the physical effort required. Its wide vertical handles allow you to work with a straight back, reducing strain on your back, shoulders and arms.

Fast and efficient

Depending on soil conditions, you can loosen approximately 5 to 10 m² in just 10 minutes, making it ideal for vegetable gardens, flower borders and larger planting areas.

Excellent soil crumbling

The combination of long and short tines breaks up compacted soil effectively. The angled tines penetrate vertically into the ground, creating a fine soil structure without damaging the natural layers.

Suitable for many gardening tasks

The GUERILU broadfork is ideal for:

• Loosening compacted soil

• Aerating vegetable gardens and flower beds

• Preparing planting holes

• Maintaining perennial borders

• Removing weeds without damaging nearby plant roots

Benefits for Your Soil

Because the soil is loosened instead of turned over, its natural ecosystem remains intact. This provides numerous long-term benefits:

• Improved soil structure

• Better root development

• Increased oxygen for roots and beneficial microorganisms

• Better water infiltration

• Improved nutrient retention

• Reduced soil compaction

• Increased soil fertility

It is also ideal for aerating soil around trees and shrubs without damaging their root systems.

How to Use the GUERILU Broadfork

Using the broadfork is simple and requires very little physical effort.

1. Position the tines vertically on the ground.

2. Press the tines into the soil using your foot.

3. Pull the handles gently towards you to loosen the soil.

4. Rock the tool slightly from left to right to crumble the soil.

5. Slide the broadfork backwards and repeat the process.

Working backwards while keeping your back straight ensures maximum comfort and ergonomic efficiency.

Maintenance

The tines are galvanised for excellent durability and corrosion resistance. For long-term protection, lightly oil the tines before storing the tool for extended periods and always keep it in a dry place.

Important Information

Always adapt the amount of force to the condition of the soil. Hard, rocky or heavily rooted ground may require extra care.

The GUERILU broadfork is designed specifically for loosening and aerating soil. It should not be used to remove shrubs, tree roots or large woody plants, as excessive force may bend the tines.
