The '''Farming Station''' from EnderIO is an automated crop and lumber management block.

Up to four different plants can be managed in separate quadrants.
 
Opening the Farming Station's GUI gives access to its internal slots. A capacitor can be added to the bottom left, below the red power bar. Tools and fertilizer go in the top row, while seeds are placed in the center four slots with padlock icons. Locking a seed will prevent any other from being used in that quadrant. The six slots in the bottom right are output. The Farming Station can automatically push/pull items when configured using the white gear icon interface. As a RF machine, it can be powered with RF or EU from a GregTech power source. The Farming Station passively consumes ~225 EU/s even when not actively working, and significantly more when harvesting or planting in its smallest configuration (7x7).

It can be configured to automatically farm various produce when supplied with the proper power and tools (I.e. Hoe for crops and Axe for wood). Whatever enchantments applied to the tools also work (Such as looting/fortune to gain more out of your crops). Every time the Farming Station harvests, it costs the tool durability thus you'll have to eventually replace your tool. You can use Capacitors to increase the range, power use, and power storage as an upgrade for the Farming Station.
