Luke Klimaszewski of Lil' Starts Farm gives some insight on how the farm started as well as some of the equipment used on the farm. Lil' Starts began as a plant nursery around 2014 and has expanded into the produce space gradual each year after.

r decades, farmers have relied on the Basket Weeder to enhance early weed control, keeping their fields cleaner with minimal soil disturbance. Designed for inter-row weeding, its rotating wire baskets break up soil and uproot weeds while allowing crops to pass safely between them. It can also be used for stale seedbed preparation by positioning the baskets together to cultivate the entire surface, disrupting weeds before planting. For tougher conditions, the front basket can be replaced with spyders for better penetration in hard or compacted soil.
