Abstract
An apparatus for removing weeds from the ground is described. The apparatus comprises an elongated shaft assembly with a top end attachable to a rotary driver; a helix mounted at a lower end of the elongated shaft, the helix shaped and sized to capture weed root material; and an anchoring structure assembly. The elongated shaft assembly is secured within the anchoring structure assembly and is able to rotate and translate longitudinally with respect to the anchoring structure assembly. The helix, when rotationally driven by the rotary driver, threads into the ground around the weed root material to capture the weed root material for removal from the ground.
