Are these still for sale? Please share contact info, if so. I guess I'm more looking for bronze then copper, but what the hey, eh? The theory behind this is that gardens were more lavish and more pest free before iron and steel implements and tools were being used. Not only is iron supposed to be detrimental to life (would you store your preps in an iron pan?) but the bronze stuff was suppose to enhance life, when applied a molecule at a time. Anyone who doubts that 'small doses' of the metals are being left within the soil should come and take a look at the spades on our Celli after one season's use! -Allan
