An apparatus is provided for stripping leaves and offshoots from stalks. The apparatus has a table with upper and lower faces. The table has a slot extending between the upper and lower faces. Beneath the slot is a rotatable cutter which has at least one blade. Preferably the cutter has a number of helically arranged blades, like a push-type lawn mower. A vacuum pulls air through the slot from above the table, and past the rotating blades. Stalks with leaves or stalks are passed over the slot so that the stalk is parallel to the slot. Leaves are sucked into the slot and when the leaves reach beneath the table they are cut of by the rotating blades. The leaves are transported by the vacuum to a container. The cut leaves, especially those with medical or therapeutic chemicals therein, may be mulched, and the chemicals extracted.
