Our New & First Piece of Machinery!




The BP-1 Planet Jr. tractor has a Briggs and Stratton 3hp engine.
These tractors had many attatchments: cultivators, mowers, saws, seeders, fertilizer spreaders, etc. The S.L. Allen & Co. Inc. out of Philedelpia, Pennsylvania, manufactured this model in the early '50's.




Loan to purchase was courtesy of the Bank of Steve

I can't wait to train everyone on it! Joe and I were having fun this afternoon when Merrill Mills (Colchester) brought our finely tuned cultivator to us!

I planted three rows of carrots this afternoon where you two were tilling the other day!
