Mechanical Tree Planting Systems

As many of you know, planting trees can be a time consuming exercise. So what method do you use when you need to plant 3,500 trees? The answer is mechanical - and there a several options.

Join Darren Doherty on Taranaki Farm as he demonstrates the Pottiputki or “Planting Spear”, the Hamilton Tree Planter and the Fedele tractor mounted transplanter. The later is particularly interesting - it’s a tractor mounted vegetable seedling transplanter adapted for use in agroforestry for planting trees. Watch it in action here.

    Do you know of anyone that would plant 2 acres of land with a tree planter in the St. Cloud, Minnesota area?

    thank you, Greg
