Gather and Rinse Fruit and Vegetables Easily with The Garden Hod Born of pure ingenuity, our Garden Hod harvest basket reflects the very best of farmers' long tradition of function al art, craftsmanship, and utility. Gardeners have discovered that the Hod lends itself to hundreds of other uses—inside and outside—any time of the year. Use the Hod for everything from a farmer's market tote to a picnic basket and a knitting basket to a place to store kindling by your fireplace. All Garden Hods are FIRE-BRANDED on one side with The Old Farmer's Almanac Sun logo! Hods were originally used by both the French and the British colonists for everything from carrying bricks and mortar to measuring and washing fish. For over hundred years, Maine's clam diggers have used hods to hold and rinse their catch. Our Garden Hods, styled after the traditional clam hod, are built to last from quality hard and soft woods.
