A conveyor system includes a plurality of produce clamps that rotate around a clamp conveyor assembly. On a field side of the conveyor system, a synchronous conveyor belt provides a support for the butt or stem of a plant placed thereon, in between clamps. As the clamp conveyor turns away from the field side, the clamps close and fully support the plants. The conveyor assembly carries the clamps, and the clamped plants, through a series of coring and trimming blades. The clamps then open to release the cored and trimmed product onto a collection conveyor, and the clamps continue to the field side to receive further plants for processing.
