tow behind attachments

Hi All. This is my first post on the site. I began bicycling for recreation earlier this year, and want start looking at my bike as more of a tool rather than for a leisurely cruise. Specifically, I want to try and start using my bike in the yard and garden. I have seen people using tow behind reel mowers, and one guy who invented a recumbent lawn mower that may go in to production soon, but I was wondering if anyone has used their bike for tow behind attachments similar to what you would use behind a garden tractor. Things like broadcast spreaders, lawn aerators, dethatchers, leaf sweepers, etc. I would love to hear anyone's ideas on this because it would be much cheaper than buying a tractor and would give me some exercise. Has anyone used their bikes like this? It seems most people are using them for commuting and towing trailers. how much weight can you tow? Thanks for your comments in advance!
