Lean Micro Farming With An E-Ox Electric Wheel Hoe | A Farmer's Story

Ben Hartman, author of The Lean Micro Farm, uses the Tilmor electric wheel hoe to accomplish tasks on his 1/3-acre farm. Clay Bottom Farm is a no-till operation located in Goshen, Indiana and all of the food produced here sells within a mile and a half of the farm. Ben uses the E-Ox to clean weeds from pathways, flip beds after terminating a crop and mechanically broad fork the soil. It replaced the manual wheel hoe for their farm and in some cases limited the need to use their BCS tiller.
Empowering farmers to grow healthy food for their communities by being the best place for them to discover equipment and information they need in every season.

“No till”😂 disturbs soil 1 second later

[@TilmorProducts]

You are correct that in the broader agricultural market, this would be considered a low or minimal till and not a true "No Till".
In the diversified vegetable market it is very difficult, almost impossible to implement a true no till strategy. At this scale, this type of low till is often referred to as no till even though there is some amount of soil disturbance.
