Brooklyn Grange - New York

The Tillie has been a great machine for our farm. The battery has surprisingly strong power and longevity, and the Tillie has allowed us to reduce both the time and labor involved in bed preparation, weeding, bed shaping, and even light tilling in our loose soil. It’s a worthwhile investment which clearly paid for itself.”

“The Carts and Tools Tillie has allowed our field staff to create in-ground raised beds with beautiful texture of soil. Not only aesthetically have we benefited from the use of the Tillie, the beds are now able to hold more moisture allowing our deep-rooted crops to thrive. The Tillie is a staple tool now as we continue to construct beds in our DC farms.”
