Horowhenua's Vintage Machinery Club is holding its third Harvest Weekend on February 2 and 3 at Grahame and Sue Cottle's property on Heatherlee Rd north of Levin.
Club members will be bringing their treasured machinery along for all to see and hear. Club president Rod Clifton said he'll have at least 30 tractors on show. "There will be traction engines, a tin mill, Clydesdales ploughing, hay demonstrations, potato digging and stationary baling as well as maize crushing," he said.
The activities celebrate machinery and harvest time. Some activities may not be possible if it rains or the soil is wet on the day. Vintage tractors and cars will be there and several times a day the engines will be started up for 15 minutes, running one after the other.
