Does anyone know where to find a compost aerating tool, that looks like an
auger at the end? I saw it on Gardening By the Yard, and looked at their
webpage, with no luck.
Thank you!

After putting "compost tool" into Google these were the first of about a
bazillion hits........I used the manually operated one for years.

I just took a piece of pencil-thin steel rod and twisted part of it aount a 2.5
inch pipe (bent the other end into a simple perpendicular handle). Ugly but
effective.

I found it, at last....it was called the 'compost crank'.
My sister wasn interested in its since she has tendonitis in
her hands, and thought it would be easy to use.
Thanks for all the suggestions

If it's the one you attach to the drill, I saw one yesterday at Lowes.

Didn't realize that was a composting tool; I bought one and it said it
was a bulb auger. Thanks for the tip about compost aeration.
