Empire Farm Days 2006

It's that time of year again! Time for Empire Farm Days in Seneca Falls. You can bet the day was sunny, hot and sunny. We came home with several bags of literature, free samples, key chains, stickers and bumper stickers, business cards and ideas. And a brand new Stihl chainsaw that had too good a price to turn down. Best swag? Free marking sticks, marking spray, and drench guns. Yee Haw.
Here is a British White cow, her calf is hidden behind her. The Beef Council had a large tent with several breeds of cows. There was also a tent with dairy cows, meat goats, and draft horses. I stopped taking pictures with my camera after this and tried my camera phone.
One tool company had a 18-wheeler truck outfitted like a pick up truck.

The best mode of transportation at this 5+ acre show is a golf cart or utility vehicle. Or this teeny tiny truck.




There was a big tractor parade as we were leaving. Here's an International Cub, one of my favorite tractors.




Here is a bigger tractor with an old baler.


Farm Days is an excellent way to spend a summer day, in my opinion!
