Designed in direct response to the need for eradicating invasive woody weeds, the Tree Popper is a robust and straightforward tool that can be operated by a single person. This ingenious tool employs the simple principle of leverage, ensuring the complete removal of unwanted vegetation and providing a permanent solution to a long-standing problem.

​

Constructed from mild steel, the Tree Popper consists of a lever/handle with a comfortable rubber grip and a foot piece securely held together by a circlip. These two simple components combine to create plier-like jaws used to grasp the plant stem. By applying downward force on the handle, leverage pressure is exerted on the tree, allowing it to be effortlessly popped out of the ground.

Yeomans Plow

The Yeomans Plow is a Australian subsoil plow designed to break up compacted soil without disturbing the topsoil layer, allowing for increased water and air penetration and improved soil fertility and carbon sequestration. Developed by P.A. Yeomans as part of his Keyline system of water management, it follows the contours of the land to slow and capture runoff, creating mini swales that hold water and promote deeper rooting. The plow's shanks create deep grooves, opening the soil to air and rainwater and facilitating the growth of soil microbes and plants, which in turn helps build organic matter and sequester carbon from the atmosphere
