Description
This drill powered tool has been modernised to fit the needs of today's Small Intensive Market Farms.
The Iconoclast is used in minimal till operations to smooth the top 1/2" to 1 1/2" of soil before seeding or transplanting. Great for smoothing and breaking up added compost, leaving your initial beds' soil undisturbed.
It can also be used to incorporate amendments like calcium or potassium into the first inch of your growing bed to maintain healthy living soil and significantly speed up your soil balancing efforts. After killing the last crop with tarping, The Iconoclast can incorporate the rotten residue to feed the life of the soil.
The Iconoclast is unable to invert soil layers, and thus it maintains the living soil profile.
When combined with a solar panel, The Iconoclast can be a central part of a carbon neutral regenerative farm.
Please Note: The Iconoclast is not for primary nor deep tillage. Using it for this purpose or with large rocks voids any warranty.

”About three years ago, a farmer in Maine whom I respect highly, suggested that I could create a modern version of a battery powered cultivator he designed years ago and that I have been using at Neversink Farm for many seasons, that would be more affordable so that an increased number of farmers and gardeners could get access to it. I said maybe I could, not knowing how incredibly hard this task would be.“ -Conor Crickmore
Conor has been testing the Iconoclast at Neversink Farm for a full year to make sure it meets his rigorous quality standards.
