THAT WAS THEN

 

 

THIS IS NOW !

 

DESIGNED BY A NURSERYMAN FOR THE NURSERY INDUSTRY.

Real world testing.   Tested for over three years on our own and other nurseries before release to the industry.  It has proven itself digging everything from 2 inch pears to fine rooted 2 year old budded dogwoods. The Tree Harvester has been used in a variety of soil types and has even dug in extremely wet clay soils after chaining to a second tractor to help with traction.

Built to do the job and last for years.  Made of heavy gauge metals and metal alloys including a replaceable u-blade made of T1 type steel.  It is manufactured using some of the best components available, including Yetter coulters and Timken bearings; with grease points included at key areas to help ensure years of service.

 

"We at Willowbend Nursery have found the TREE HARVESTER digging machine to be a very strong and reliable piece of equipment.  The digger lifts and shakes the bareroot trees very effectively and most importantly does not require constant repairs as do some of the other brands we have tried.  I would strongly recommend the TREE HARVESTER for its durability."

David Brewster, Willowbend Nursery, Perry Ohio

 

"The TREE HARVESTER is the finest digger we have ever used.  It permits us to dig dogwoods which have a very fibrous root system in less than half of the time using our old diggers and we have never had any problems with breakdowns.  The design of the digger does not shake our tractor.  We highly recommend the TREE HARVESTER.

Fred Shadow, Tennessee Valley Nursery, Winchester Tennessee
