The annual F.A.R.M. (Firelands Area Restorers of Machines) Antique Tractor Show is back. It was canceled last year, so this year is the 25th and 26th show Friday through Sunday, July 23-25 at New London Recreation Park.
Allis-Chalmers, the tractor that would have been featured last year, and John Deere are the stars of this year’s show. As always, admission to the show is by donation, and all makes and models of tractors are welcome.
Show festivities will include antique tractors and gas engine displays, a tractor parade, a kiddie pedal tractor pull, garden tractor fun pull, an operating sawmill, pie auction, toy show and a huge craft/flea market that is going to fill the Hileman Building. Also, several food vendors will offer pulled pork, BBQ and other crowd favorites.
