Steam Engines

We have a number of steam engines on display for you to see! You’ll catch a glimpse of them in the daily parade, or belted up to one of our displays such as the rock crusher, a sawmill or separator. If the weather cooperates, you’ll see these tractors plowing the south grounds. Truly a sight to see!

Gas Tractors

From garden tractors to prairie tractors, we have a large assortment of tractors to see! We have all of the big names on display such as John Deere, Farmall, Minneapolis and some of the more rare tractors at times as well!

Stationary Engines

There is a large amount of stationary or wheeled gas engines on display at our show to enjoy as well. From the large stationary engines all the way down to 1hp portable engines, chainsaw carving displays and more, we have something for everyones interest. Be sure to check out our Fuller & Johnson building for some great exhibits too.

Sawmills

There are a number of sawmills on display at our grounds. We have a large bandsaw mill, 2 full size mills and often portable mills as well. Daily demonstrations and narration on how sawmills were used back in the day are given!

Artisan & Crafts

Our grounds have over 7 buildings of live artisan’s demonstrating their crafts. Blacksmiths, Woodworking, Machining, and several sawmills. There are also several buildings with models of running historical equipment and dioramas. The Women’s Events Building provides a glimpse of historic American life! Remember to watch threshing, plowing and construction equipment demonstrations on the south end of the grounds.

Vintage Vehicles

Steam and Gas Tractors are not the only wheels on the grounds. Don’t forget to stop by our vintage gas station! In addition to lines of classic cars, hot rods, and massive work trucks. Many lovingly restored!

2PM Parade

All three days of the show at 2PM members and exhibitors parade their cherished running exhibits. Everyone has a great time seeing running pieces of history!

Our members and exhibitors have collected everything from the past and enjoy sharing functioning equipment for others to enjoy. See you at the showgrounds in August.
