The Old Time Plowboys Club Inc.

Help promote our Pennsylvania German heritage and farming history for future generations. We have a great setting to demonstrate what this area was about, Farming and Pa German Culture. Oh yes, and FOOD too! Our Club is over 290 members strong and they love to show off their tractors and actually use them for what they were intended to do - put in a full days work.  We invite non-members to participate in the show by bring equipment or demonstrations to be on site and set up by 10am.

Our Club has a unique setting located at the Pennsylvania German Cultural Heritage Center in Kutztown, Pa.  The site features a restored farm house, barn and school house for visitors to enjoy and reminisce.  At our April show, club members till the land, something you will not see at many tractor shows, using antique farm equipment ranging from 1 to 3 bottom plows. We also disk the 30+ acres using antique machinery. Our Club has many historical machines that we display and operate for visitors to see how farming and harvesting was done years ago. This year we are featuring Allis-Chalmers Tractors and equipment.
 
Visit our show both days to see the sights and sounds of:
Live Farming demonstrations along with Homemade Food & Baked Goods, Vendors, Local Artisans and Craftsmen, Antique Tractor & Equipment Parade, Wagon Rides all day, Tractor Games, Children's Games and Craft.
