Hey Timothy,
I would love to give you a ride up on Saturday morning, but I will be heading up very early. would you want to come up and help me set up around 8am?
Best,
Devon
Another tool that is being used just outside of Ithaca, is the Japanese Paper Pot Transplanter. Muddy Fingers Farm in Hector NY has begun to use this transplanter, and I hope to hear some feedback about their experience with it during the design charrettes-- the way it works is amazing.
