20 Years in the Strip-Till Equipment Business
We toured the Environmental Tillage Systems (ETS) facilities in Faribault, Minn., last week. The company is celebrating the SoilWarrior’s 20th year in commercial sales.
Touring Environmental Tillage Systems today! Since our last visit, #ETS added a new powder paint facility, putting welding, production & paint all under 1 roof. Celebrating its 20th anniversary of commercial sales of the @SoilWarrior, birthed in founder Mark Bauer’s hog barn '02. pic.twitter.com/kdBaS8LTtG
