If you are not a member of the farming community and wondering if Farm Technology Days is something for you, it is! The three-day outdoor event has something for everyone! Yes, there’s the daily field demos with the latest and greatest equipment, heck there’s even vintage equipment that will be demoed daily. Despite the large equipment, there’s fun for the whole family!
There is the Future Generations Area offering a wide variety of indoor and outdoor exhibits, including many hands-on activities for the kids. A few activities include Bridges Library System, Ag in the Classroom, Wisconsin Christmas Tree Producers, Wisconsin Farmers Union and many more.
If that doesn’t have you convinced be sure to check out Innovation Square which will highlight the history of Jefferson County and its agricultural development. Guided and supported by several local historical societies and museums, along with local historians, and experts on Jefferson County archaeology, we’ll include information and exhibits that show how agriculture in Jefferson County has progressed from 600 AD Native American agriculture to the foundation of America’s Dairyland to today’s progressive farms and innovative companies.
Also, if you get hungry, there will be plenty of delicious food available! The menu includes some local favorites such as Emil’s Pizza, Johnsonville brats and Jones Dairy Farm pork products. For dessert there will be ice cream sundaes featuring Mullen’s Ice Cream and famous Pine Cone cream puffs! There will be four different flavors of cream puffs, including original, raspberry, maple and Bavarian cream. Each day they will feature a different flavor of Johnsonville brats and creams puffs!
