A seeding apparatus plants seed in the ground with a minimum soil disturbance. A base plate is provided which is supported for sliding movemen t along the ground and which includes a plurality of seed apertures formed therein. A metering system meters seed from a seed hopper to the seed apertures. Reciprocating push-rods subsequently push the seed through the seed aperture to a prescribed depth below a surface of the ground. As the seed remains in conta ct with moist soil below the surface of the ground, rapid germination results withou t concern for seed runoff when seeding sloped surfaces.
