Linda,

Lee Valley Tools, located in the Ottawa area, sells a line of small garden
implements for house plants etc. that would do very nicely for Zen
gardens. I'm sure they have a web site you could find by doing a Google
search or you'd probably find them through Canada 411.

I have no connection with Lee Valley beyond being a satisfied customer.

Hi Linda,
when I made small zen gardens my hubby & I made the rakes out of small pieces
of square balsa wood & bamboo skewers for the tines & handle. All you need is
a small drill bit & drill & some glue. Since it isn't going to get wet I guess it really doesn't
matter if you use wood or white glue . good luck!

Canadian source would be my ultimate dream, but if you know of any , I would
appreciate the help.



Many thanks
