This one horse plow has two main functions. First, it can plow a furrow or ditch in which potatoes or other plants can be placed and then it can be drawn between the rows to cover the rows.
Later, it can again be drawn between the rows to hill up the potatoes, asparagus or whatever plants need it.
This potato plow has adjustable wings to fit the rows. Its angle can also be adjusted in order to make a deeper or more shallow row.
This tool is on loan from Barbara and William Coleman.
