Harvester Holds Picked Produce

Harvester Holds Picked Produce FARM HOME Food 29-4-30 If you're looking for a large wearable carrier that holds fruit, vegetables or flowers while you're standing and picking, you might be interested in the Portable Harvester. It looks like a flipped-up apron that's stabilized by three hinged sticks. The cotton muslin pouch holds about 10 lbs., depending on how much weight your neck can support, says Sarah Chapman, inventor. Just tilt a corner on the harvester to unload your cargo. "My original model lasted for 10 years without repairs," she says. It can also be used instead of a laundry basket to carry clothes to hang on the line without constantly bending over to pick up the laundry. Sells for $20.
