This is made possible by this hand tool, the head of which may look familiar to you. It is the same as our long-handled weeding blade. Made of steel, the single hook is specially sharpened on one side. This allows you to thoroughly loosen the soil in the raised bed in one go and at the same time grab the unwanted weeds by the root and cut them under - even if the plants are close together. The slightly shorter birch wood handle is very sturdy, but hardly weighs anything. It is just the right length for tending the soil in raised beds: Without having to bend over, contort yourself or make similar back-breaking movements, you can reach the other side of the bed box with the tool head and easily handle the tool in a controlled manner. The situation is similar when working in densely overgrown garden beds, where this tool is just as safe to use as a hand tool, but with its comparatively long handle it has a greater reach.
