Antique Tractor Pull

The Association is introducing one of the events that was very popular n the past and that is the Antique Tractor Pull. This is not a competitive tractor pull but rather a "tug-for-fun" event. The idea was to have an event where participants could exhibit their tractor in a semi-working enviroment and have fun in doing so. To ensure that all participants were on even footing it was necessary to devise some rules.

STEAM and TRACTOR PLOW WEEKEND

Each year the association holds a steam and tractor plow weekend, usually in mid October, weather permitting. Once the farm and fields are identified and a date is set, steam engines and tractors start arriving at the site. Water and gas tanks, coal and kindling boxes are filled, and every moving part is greased and oiled in preparation of an early start come plow day.

ANNUAL STEAM and GAS WORKDAY

Sat. Aug 28, 2010

Each year, normally mid August, in preparation for the Pasture Party the Association holds a workday. Volunteers armed with working equipment of all sizes and descriptions gather at Fairfield View Dairy Farm to participate in the workday.
