Do you plow it first or just use the tiller? Also, how do you transport the water from the rain barrels?
I plow it fall and spring, then go over it with an Agri-Fab cultivator. Once I'm ready to plant some rows, I'll bring out the 123/tiller.

(I just haul the water in 5-gal. buckets. Some day, I'll rig up a pump to be able to send the water up the hill through a hose.)

I bought that 123/tiller last summer specifically for making the tilling easier. Since then, I've fallen in LOVE with the old Cubs!

Great pics! These old tillers do a great job and they make tilling your and your friends gardens so enjoyable. Adds to the seat time too!

The garden and soil look fantastic! Maybe you could use an old sump pump and find a long length of old, used pool hose to irrigate your garden. Hauling buckets of water to the garden reminds of what I did in the family garden years ago. I had to have it all done by the time my dad got home from work. We also had an old Fraser rototiller that was just awesome, but I never got to use it...was stuck using the Western Auto front tine tiller.

I onlly use the tiller in the spring to prep the soil. bury it until the back flap is even with the ground, and let it push you through the garden. When I'm done I can stand where I tilled, and not see my boots. awsome tool.

Not a bad idea (sump pump). I'll keep my eyes open for one. You know what I'd REALLY like???? A windmill!!!

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
