THE STORY OF EVIGSDAE – IT ALL STARTED WITH A BROKEN EDGER
Anne and I had just bought a brand-new lawn edger, eager to expand our flower beds. But the first time I pressed it into the soil, it bent, becoming completely unusable. Frustrated by yet another low-quality tool from a big-box store, we thought, "There have to be better tools out there." (To be honest, there were probably a few choice words in that moment.)
Back in 2009, I had just been laid off as a carpenter, and Anne was underemployed. We were searching for a business idea when we realized that surely we weren’t the only gardeners tired of flimsy, poorly made tools.
That’s when we started searching—and discovered that there were still craftsmen out there who took pride in their work. We found garden tools that weren’t just mass-produced but built to last a lifetime, handcrafted by artisans who understood quality and functionality.
From the beginning, we knew that offering top-notch products wasn’t enough. We wanted to bring back a level of customer service that seems rare these days. Every decision we make is guided by a simple principle: "Do what’s right."
In a world where many products are designed to be disposable, we aim to provide durable, well-crafted garden tools that you can count on—and we stand behind them with service that ensures you’ll always feel confident in your purchase.
BUYING ONLINE...WE GET IT.
We understand the challenges of buying tools online—you can’t hold them in your hands before making a decision. That’s why we do our best to provide detailed descriptions, plenty of photos, and (as we work past our camera shyness) helpful product videos.
And if you’re anything like us, you want your order now. That’s why we ship the same business day whenever possible. If it’s late in the afternoon, your order will go out first thing the next business day.
Have a question about a tool? Need help finding something specific? Want to share your favorite (or least favorite) garden tools? We’d love to hear from you—after all, you’re the reason we’re here!
