Abstract: A sprig harvester apparatus for harvesting sprigs of grass, such as Bermuda grass, from a ground surface and conveying the grass sprigs to an awaiting receptacle. The apparatus includes a harvesting portion mounted on a rolling chassis. The harvesting portion includes blades for cutting the grass sprigs from the ground surface and a first elevator chain for moving the grass sprigs upwardly, while providing sufficient vibration to shake soil therefrom. The grass sprigs are discharged from the harvesting portion into a hopper section of a hopper/elevator portion. The hopper/elevator portion is mounted on a pivot assembly attached to the chassis. The hopper/elevator portion also includes an upper elevator section pivotally connected to the hopper section so that it can be raised and lowered by a hydraulic cylinder.
