"Scoop" Picks Fruit Off The Ground
Made from heavy wire, the rake-like scoop measures 12 in. wide and 12 in. deep with a wavy bottom. As you pull the scoop along the ground the fruit is scooped up and is held in the basket.
“It’s easy to use and saves a lot of time. You can make 2 or 3 passes without any apples falling out,” says Schutz. “It’s designed to pick up fallen fruit before mowing or for harvest purposes, but it has a lot of different uses. For example, you can use it to pick up everything from walnuts to golf balls, and even rocks and potatoes out of your garden.”
Schutz is in the process of finalizing plans to get the Pelican Scoop manufactured. He expects it to sell for about $20 to $25.
