You aren't producing garden crops worth $50,000 per acre. You don't need a $2000 tillage tool that takes forever to make a seed bed. You need to just hit the ground with a field cultivator, say 12' wide and go in just 3 or 4 inches. Mount it with two or three bars of spring tooth harrow on behind and in ONE pass you will make a perfectly good seed bed for wild critter feed. My old CCA (that I don't use anymore) would be OK, though its a bit light for penetration. Any width of row crop cultivator with the gaps filled in would do for your purposes, though its a bother to attach the spring tooth behind. A pulled field cultivator tends to have better trash clearance and a back bar that you can hang the spring tooth parts from.
