For 42 years there has been an antique farm machinery exhibit at the Kenosha County Fair.
That’s a long time. But much of the equipment in this display will be considerably older.

Some of the machinery you might see includes:
- Old-fashioned pitcher pump to draw water.
- Roper maker, with which you can make you own sample to take home.
- Old tractors, including John Deere, Allis Chalmers and Farmall models.
Looking over these machines of yesteryear is interesting. But if you have a piece of farm related equipment to display there’s still time to do that too. Contact Bill Herreid at 862-7660 or kcf_machinery@yahoo.com.
The antique farm machinery exhibit is located just inside the Kenosha County fair main gate on the north end of the fairgrounds.
Good post. From all the blogs I have been here is likely the most comprehensive blog post regarding Daily Crow: Farming the way it used to be done | West of the I that I’ve been to. This site has informative posts. Thanks, I’m never disappointed.
