Benefits

A rake is a garden tool consisting of a row of metal teeth attached to a long handle. You can use a rake to make the earth smooth and level before you put plants in, or to gather leaves together. Its good for cleaning up a lawn in the spring. Running the sharp, hard tines over the grass will both pick up any debris and pull away thickly matted, compacted dead turf. It’s also very good for pushing around, grooming, and leveling material such as soil, mulch, gravel, and compost.
