A slice seeder apparatus includes a frame supported on wheels, and ground-engaging blades housed in the frame. At least one of the wheels can be moved between a raised position and a lowered position with respect to the frame. The apparatus also includes a hoist for moving the at least one wheel between the raised position where the blades are engaged in the ground, and the lowered position where the blades are clear from the ground. Additionally, the apparatus includes an engine housed in the frame and operatively connected to power at least the blades and the hoist and at least one switch for actuating the hoist to move between the raised position and the lowered position.
