Garden season is in full swing! 🌱

One of the best things about having a tractor and a cultivator set is letting them do the hard work.

Breaking ground.
Building rows.
Cultivating.
Hilling.

Jobs that used to take hours by hand can be done in a fraction of the time.

Now the real question...

What are you growing this year?

Will a Heavy Duty Tooth Bar Fit Your Bucket?

Not all bucket cutting edges are created equal.

In our latest video, Terry explains why Heavy Duty Tooth Bars require a more tapered cutting edge and why buckets with a blunt edge may not be compatible.

Understanding the difference before you order can save you time and ensure you get the best performance from your equipment.

Watch the video to see the difference and learn what to look for on your bucket.

It's officially driveway season.

A little pothole turns into a big pothole.

A rough spot becomes a rough ride.

And somehow the gravel always ends up where you don't want it.

The good news?

Most driveway issues are easier to fix when they're small.

A few passes now with the Heavy Hitch Landscape rake or the Land Leveler can save a lot more work later.

How is your driveway looking this year?

One of the most common questions new tractor owners ask:

When should I use 4-wheel drive?

A good rule of thumb:

âś… Use 4WD when:

Working with a loader
Pulling ground-engaging implements
Driving on soft, muddy, or uneven ground
Climbing hills
Moving heavy loads

❌ You may not need 4WD when:

Mowing on dry, level ground
Driving on hard surfaces
Transporting light loads

Using 4WD when conditions call for it helps improve traction, reduce wheel spin, and can actually make your tractor work more efficiently.

Just remember to switch back to 2WD when extra traction isn't needed.

What job do you use 4WD for most often?

The PTO was originally developed to allow tractors to directly power implements from the tractor’s engine.

Before PTO systems became common, many machines needed separate engines to operate.

The PTO changed that, making tractors much more versatile and efficient by allowing one machine to both pull and power equipment.

And it’s still doing the same job today on everything from mowers and tillers to balers and more.

Simple idea… huge impact on farming and property maintenance.

Thanks to everyone who played along!

We’ll be reaching out to our random winner soon.

Why choose between a front and rear land leveler when you can have both?

Our new Front & Rear Land Leveler gives you the flexibility to work from either end of the tractor, depending on the job and your preference.

Terry recently put together a video walking through the features, benefits, and what makes this setup different from traditional land levelers.

If driveway repair, grading, or smoothing out rough areas is on your project list this year, it's worth a look.

There’s a reason so many people say adding the right attachment completely changes what their tractor can do.

More traction.
Better control.
Less frustration.

Sometimes it’s not about needing a bigger machine…

It’s about getting more out of the one you already have.

That’s exactly what we build our products to do.

What attachment has made the biggest difference for you?
