The Garden Rocker, designed by Dianne and Sherry in collaboration with White Pine Concepts, is an ergonomic sitting support for use while gardening or doing other work down low. The patented shape of the base allows the person to lean forward, moving closer and lower to their work. The contoured height adjustable seat reduces strain and eases pressure on a gardener’s knees and back during prolonged weeding or planting. It allows you to turn from side to side, to move easily in any direction as it pivots on the curved base.
The Garden Rocker has been licensed to Vertex Corporation.
