Farmer Development and Support
Rent Equipment and Tools
We provide local growers with access to necessary equipment without having to take on the burdens associated with ownership. By sharing equipment across many different growers, the equipment will be better utilized, spending more time in the fields and less time sitting in storage. Over time, we plan to expand our assortment of equipment. If there is something you wish we had, please let us know!
We know that owning all of your own equipment can be both costly and difficult to store. There are many items that you may only need a few times per year, and it is often cheaper and more convenient to rent these items for the days you need them. We offer affordable pricing and convenient pickup and drop-off!
Thanks to the Jefferson Conservation District for partnering on this equipment and tool rental program.
