depends on what lime he gets.. peletized is different from powder is different from crushed limestone.
Where I live, an extension agent will rent equipment to spread ( or plant trees, or cut fire brakes via trailing plow ), very very cheaply or free.
might check. If you can get the spreader free, and have a loader to load it and a tractor to pull it.. then a load of crushed limerock will undoubtedly be your cheapest route.
The op could possibly find an old spreader at an equipment sale, like we used,and it worked fine for spreading lime and other things including seed . i think soundguy has it right depends on the type of lime even better if the spreader can be borrowed
