Our First Farm Show.

We took a couple days off from farm duty this week to make the trip southbound to the Sunbelt Agriculture Expo in Moultrie, Georgia. We left early Wednesday morning... made it to the show about mid-morning... spent all day browsing the many exhibitors and all of their goodies. We found the seed company that we've bought seeds from online and talked to them about our crops. We looked at so many of the latest and greatest farm tractors, ATV's, farm attachments, tools, crop seeds, livestock, poultry, gimmicks, tricks, tips.... the list goes on and on. You name it, they had it. And we had a blast walking around seeing so many cool things and picking up brochures to bring home to read.

But, the best part of the trip was that we found our new seeder for a discounted price (plus no shipping!) and a new attachment for the tractor that Hubby has been wanting that builds your garden rows and cultivate weeds from between your garden rows. Did you know that you can break down a tractor attachment into small enough pieces that they can fit into the trunk of a Honda? Yep, we managed to bring home both pieces of equipment without a truck or trailer!

We had a blast for the past two days seeing all the latest farming and agriculture techniques and toys. Now it's back to the farm...
