FELCO 470 - KIDS Premium Garden Tool Set - Heavy-Duty Steel Trowel and Fork with Ash Wood Handles

FELCO 470 KIDS - Premium Garden Tool Set - 265 mm - Heavy-Duty Steel Trowel & Fork with Ash Handles

Passing down gardening skills works best when children use real tools, not brittle plastic toys. The FELCO 470 KIDS box set pairs a miniature hand trowel and hand fork at 265 mm overall length, forged from heavy-duty steel with premium ash wood handles sized for hands aged 4 and up.

The steel heads slice through packed loam, roots, and clay without bending, while warm ash handles absorb shock and deliver an authentic craftsmanship feel. Integrated leather hanging cords keep tools organised on shed pegboards, and the gift box presentation makes this an ideal introduction to sustainable food production and backyard exploration.

Best For: Young budding gardeners, family estate assistants, and preschool outdoor programs requiring rugged, child-scaled hand tools built to professional standards.

Key Features:

• Youth-Scaled 265 mm Framework: Agile dimensions match children's hand ergonomics and strength for better control.
• Premium Ash Wood Handles: Turned ash delivers natural shock absorption, smooth handling, and classic craftsmanship.
• Heavy-Duty Industrial Steel Heads: Thick steel trowel and fork cut through packed soil and roots without bending.
• Integrated Leather Storage Cords: Hanging loops keep tools clean, organised, and dry between projects.
• Gift-Ready Box Set: Compact presentation box ideal for introducing children to gardening and botanical exploration.

Primary Cultivation Applications

• Planting & Bulb Work: Digging holes for flower bulbs, vegetable seedlings, and summer annuals.
• Container & Bed Aeration: Loosening compacted soil, aerating pots, and scooping potting mix during family sessions.
• Sensory Outdoor Learning: Weeding borders and scooping mulch without damaging delicate root structures.

Pro Tip & Maintenance: Wipe steel heads dry after use and apply a light oil film to prevent rust in humid sheds. Teach children to store tools hung by the cord rather than left in soil. Inspect handle tightness seasonally and tighten if any movement develops at the head joint.

Oversized Item Delivery Options

Since oversized items require special handling, we may need to provide a custom freight quote for your order and will contact you with an updated shipping rate.

Available options include:

✔ Delivery to your closest depot for pickup - default method
✔ Direct delivery - requires forklift on site
✔ Direct delivery with tailgate lift truck (extra fees apply)
✔ Forklift loading at our warehouse (no extra charge if you arrange your own freight)
✔ Direct truck delivery (available in Victoria)

Important Notes:

• Shipping costs vary by location and method
• Because of the forklift requirement, delivery to the nearest depot is the default option and will be the method used unless you contact us to request otherwise.

Business Delivery:

• Business delivery is available for commercial customers only
• If you select business delivery and your products are bulky, it is your responsibility to ensure you have appropriate equipment (including forklifts) to unload products from the delivery truck
• If you select business delivery and you are not a business, you risk your product not being delivered and may incur additional fees to retrieve your order
• Business delivery customers must provide a valid business address and contact information
• Additional fees may apply for failed delivery attempts due to lack of appropriate unloading equipment

Let us know your preference, and we'll arrange the best solution for you!

Important Note on Availability & Shipping

Our warehouse serves as our office and logistics centre rather than a retail showroom. Because we ship from multiple locations and manage high-turnover stock, not all items are available for immediate pickup.

Lead Times:

• In-Stock Items: Usually ready for dispatch the same day.
• Supplier-Dependent Items: Usually take 2–8 weeks to arrive, depending on supplier availability. Products from Adloheat may take 8–12 weeks to manufacture—they are made to order in Australia by a small business, and longer lead times reflect the care put into quality.

While we strive for fast delivery, some timelines are subject to supplier availability and are beyond our control. We appreciate your patience as we source the best quality gear for your project.

Biosecurity & Interstate Shipping Restrictions

Due to strict state biosecurity regulations, we are unable to ship some products to certain states and territories:

• Potting Mixes cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA), the Northern Territory (NT), or Tasmania (TAS).
• Seeds cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA).

Orders placed for these items to restricted states will be cancelled and refunded. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that the items being ordered can lawfully be delivered to their state or territory.
