8701b Garden Seeder, 3 Lb Hopper, 12-in Spread, Steel

The Chapin 8701B garden seeder is a steel-frame tool designed to take the strain out of planting vegetable and flower seeds in garden rows. With its durable powder-coated steel construction and convenient poly seed hopper, this seeder plows, places seeds at proper intervals, and pats soil over them in a single pass—eliminating the guesswork and physical effort of hand planting. Whether you're sowing a small flower bed or a larger vegetable garden, this seeder delivers consistent seed placement and spacing.

This seeder works with multiple seed types thanks to six interchangeable seed plates that accommodate approximately 20 different varieties, giving you flexibility across your entire garden. The wide rear wheel firms and pats the soil as you go, while an adjustable row marker lets you set and follow the correct spacing for the next row. The tool works most effectively in properly cultivated soil and reduces the time spent on planting tasks while improving germination uniformity.
