Equipment Rental
No-Till Drill
WCNRD has a 4-foot Dew Drop No-Till Drill available to rent. The cost of rental is $50/day for habitat or personal use and $200/day for commercial use. There is a $100 deposit for use of the drill. A user’s manual for the drill is available at the office.
The drill has a trailer for towing and requires a 1 7/8th inch ball hitch coupler to operate.

Plastic mulch layer
WCNRD also has a plastic mulch/landscape fabric layer. We are currently assessing how operable it is and what maintenance needs to be done to it.
The layer has a trailer for towing (tires were replaced in 2024) and requires a tractor with a three-point hitch to operate.
