Spring Plow Day

Spring Plow day is a community festival centered around the plowing of the cropland adjacent to the Homeplace campus. Dedicated to education and preserving our rural agricultural heritage, Spring Plow Day features mule and horse-drawn plow teams from our region and beyond. Visitors can witness the old-fashioned plowing and a log skidding competition in the morning, while also enjoying over 50 food and arts and craft vendors, historical re-enactors, and folks demonstrating everything from lard rendering to whittling. We’ll have hay rides, kiddy rides, an antique tractor show, a petting farm, sheep shearing and incredible live music in the bank barn, pony rides, a tin smith, a chainsaw sculptor, and more! A perfect way to spend a spring day with the whole family.
