Show off your hard work or project, whether if it's a tractor, vintage car, or oddity. We invite and accept all types of vintage engines and farm machinery.
Learn to do it the old fashioned way! Break a sweat with some of the best people you can meet. Tractor drives, plow days, wheat drilling, binding, threshing and baling demonstrations, and taking part in events keeps us busy and there's always enough stuff for anyone who's wanting to help and learn.
