AGRICULTURAL SUPPLIES - Harvesting Tools
Clip N Pick Fruit Picker
The
Clip N Pick system is the number one tool used by avocado harvesters and
other harvesting companies who need to harvest difficult fruits and nuts
such as mangos, persimmons, chestnuts and other types of hard to reach
specialty fruit.
This handy little tool eliminates the pack out destroying "hook sticks". It provides "hand picked quality" on fruit types of mangos, avocados, citrus and other delicate fruits. It is also ideal to use for maturity testing, early spot picking or for those elusive "shiners". Replaceable mesh bags are heavy duty tear, abrasion & mildew resistant. Clip-N-Pick comes in two parts and can be ordered seperately. The first part is the frame which comes with a replaceable bag and replaceable blades. The second part is the 6 foot to 12 foot telescoping pole.
UPS considers our Clip-N-Pick pole to be an oversized item because of it's length and therefore caculates the shipping cost as if the pole weighed 35 lbs. The Clip-N-Pick frame can be attached to a locally bought pool pole and instructions are included explaining which end of the pole to use and how to drill the appropriate holes. With that in mind however, we like our poles best because they were specifically designed for the Clip-N-Pick frame and fit together securely, leading to increased stability by distributing the weight of a full bag more evenly.
PLEASE NOTE:
IF YOU ARE ORDERING THE POLE IT MUST SHIP VIA UPS

What our customers are saying
about the
Clip-N-Pick Harvester
"We love your harvest
picker pole!!!!! We used it for a full week getting chestnuts from our
tree that is about 25 feet tall. The extension pole was exactly what we
needed. I don't know if you have ever seen a chestnut pod....they are
the size of an apple but with prickly quills on it that make it impossible
to handle with bare hands. The little pouch worked great so that those
prickly little things don't hit you in the head when they fall."
MaryAnne K. (Schererville, Indiana)
"This fruit picker is fantastic. The cutting blades went through avocado stems like a hot knife through butter leaving the fruit and the branches from which it was growing totally unscathed. The heavy duty bag holds about 4 large avocados. Between the smooth picking and the good size bag picking went many times faster than when I used the old hook and wire basket Home Depot type pickers. I picked about 10 avocados a minute including putting them in plastic bags to take in the house. I'm totally happy with my purchase and would recommend this item and your company to anyone.
John W. Hoffman (Boca Raton, FL)
"I thought I'd let you know
how the "Clip n Pick" worked on my pear tree. It worked. It worked great!
I tried using the tool with and without the blades in place. The picker
works just as well without the blades. The tough part of using the tool
is really a matter of getting a good grip on the fruit. Once I managed to
tease the pear into the little yolk at the top of the picker it was simple
to snag the fruit. It's also a matter of angle. The closer you get to 90
degrees, the harder it is to get your grip. I have to tell you that I appreciated
your telling me that you were not sure if this tool would work well on pear
trees. It's nice to run into a company that dosen't make claims it can't
back up. You also told me that pears may grow in clusters that might not
be accessable to the picker. Don't worry about that. A couple of times I
got 3 pears on one pass.. Not too shabby. So there you have it. I'm a happy
camper with a bushel of pears sitting on the kitchen floor. You have a great
product and I'm glad we did business. " T. Kiernan (Bronx, NY)
"I am very happy with the
fruit picker that i ordered. I was also very happy with the prompt shipment
as it arrived in time for me to be able to take advantage of some free time
on a weekend to actually use it :) Family and friends who have also used
the picker are very impressed with it ... it is a design we have not seen
before and it works beautifully. I'd recommend it for anyone and probably
most any fruit. We used it for mangos and it took all the tugging, twisting
and pulling out of the job. You may use anything I send as a "customer testimonial"
as I was very pleased with my order and service. One note on attaching the
picker to the pole. We used a screw through the little hole instead of the
plastic piece that came with it ... it just felt a little sturdier to us
that way. You may want to mention it on the web page as an alternate attachment
method." M. Mason (Indialantic, FL)
