They were also known for their experimentation with and early embrace of concepts such as environmentalism, feminism and alternative economics. The Hoedads took their name from their use of the "hoedad" (or "hoedag"), a hand implement similar to a hoe used to plant bare-root trees on steep slopes (Hartzell 1987: 29, 45-46).
