    Teams of draft horses and mules from throughout New England participate in plowing demonstrations as part of this annual event. Learn how horses are harnessed, hitched, and cared for. Watch the shearing of our resident sheep, and see how the wool is washed, carded, and spun into yarn. Enjoy horse-drawn wagon rides, farm animals, blacksmithing demonstrations, children’s crafts and games. Listen to New England fiddle music performed by E. J. Ouelette or watch a puppet show by Martha Dana. Please call 978-462-2634 for more information. Purchase tickets now.
