Welcome to the 20th Hastings County Farm Show and Plowing Match!

President’s Welcome – Bart McFadden

It’s here! Our 20th anniversary!

The Hastings County Plowing Match and Farm Show Committee is excited to be scheduling our anniversary show near the outskirts of Stirling, Ontario on Lysle View Farms, with our hosts, the Carlisle families; Ross and Elaine along with their son Jeff and his wife Sheree.

This year our 20th Anniversary Show is celebrating our achievement at the same time as the Village of Stirling celebrates their 150th anniversary as a town.

We invite you to come and celebrate our show from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm on Wednesday, August 20, 2008 and 9:00 am to 4:00 pm on Thursday, August 21, 2008.

Once again we invite you to come and see what more than 250 exhibitors have to offer with their latest in agricultural equipment and services, as well as the plowing competitions, the antique display, the woodlot display and all the other great activities that the show is well known for.

Also, when you visit our Plowing Match and Farm Show, be sure to take in the many activities offered by Stirling’s 150th Anniversary Committee.

One major event is the World’s Greatest Tractor Parade scheduled for late afternoon Wednesday, August 20, 2008. Farm tractors of all shapes, sizes and colours are expected to roll down the streets of Stirling and hopefully into the World’s Book of Guinness Records.

The 20th Hastings County Plowing Match and Farm Show is located northwest of the Village of Stirling on the northwest corner of Hoard’s Road and Lake Road.

We look forward to celebrating our 20th Anniversary and sharing this milestone with you. See you there!
