Shredder/Chippers and other power equipment_

I've been watching this market change rapidly since the early 1970s. Manufacturers come and go. Equipment is usually ordered direct from the maker, freight extra. Those interested in large horsepower shredder/chippers might check the advertisements in garden-related magazines such as _National Gardening, Organic Gardening, Sunset, Horticulture, Fine Gardening, Country Living (Harrowsmith), _etc. Without intending any endorsement or criticism of their products, two makers that have remained in business since I started gardening are:

Kemp Company. 160 Koser Road., Lititz, PA 17543. (also compost drums)

Troy-Bilt Manufacturing Company, 102D St. & 9th Ave., Troy, NY 12180
