The Forrester is a heavy-duty planting machine designed to provide an economical means of planting thousands of seedlings.

A simple design and quickly replaceable “wearing parts” help to reduce downtime. The Forrester attaches to the 3 point hitch of tractors with category 1 and 2 hitches. Approximately 25 horsepower required depending on soil conditions. Weight about 500 pounds.
