Pete at Two Bad Cats listened to our feedback, and the feedback of other farmers, and created a durable, functional, economical, and time-saving row marker.  It can accommodate any plant spacing and it works exceptionally well in black plastic as well as on bare soil.  If you transplant anything by hand on your farm, you should get this tool!  We grow 10 acres of  mixed vegetables and couldn't imagine life without this versatile and effective tool.

There are different systems for marking beds for transplanting--Two Bad Cats' dibblers are great for us. It takes hardly any time to mark a whole bed, and it's ergonomically easy on our bodies. This allows for precision and efficiency, much needed on our small-scale farm. It also means that unskilled laborers or volunteers aren't estimating when they transplant.

On the farm where we apprenticed, we spent long hours using a tiny wooden dowel or pencil to pop transplants out of plastic 1020 trays. It was frustrating and time-consuming. Two Bad Cats' poppers save us a ton of time on the farm. As long as the roots are developed to the right stage, the plugs pop right out in just a few seconds. The popper has held up after being left out in the elements, and helps us to be more efficient.
