Plowing Bee

set for April 19-20

The Old Time Farming Days Plowing Bee will be held next to the Palouse Empire Fairgrounds April 19-20.

The Colfax location is the third in a series of events that honor the way the land used to be farmed. Horse-drawn equipment will be used. The first event is in Pomeroy this weekend, April 5-6, and then teams will travel to Odessa April 12-13.

The land, across from the fairgrounds, will be plowed, harrowed, then seeded, all with horses.

If the weather doesn’t cooperate, the bee will be canceled and held at a later date.
