THE FIRST FARM SHOW WAS IN 1975.    RAINING TODAY, BUT STILL A GOOD
TURNOUT FOR THE NOON HAMBURGER LUNCH, FEATURING BURGERS OFF THE JACKSON COUNTY CATTLEMEN'S GRILL THAT WAS PUT  UNDER A LIVESTOCK SHELTER AT THE FAIRGROUNDS TO GET OUT OF THE RAIN.
IN PHOTOS BELOW, YOU WILL SEE MIKE FRANZEN AT HIS FARM TRACTOR
BOOTH....DAVE STEFFENS IN THE WHEATLAND INSURANCE BOOTH AND

THE NOON HOUR GUEST SPEAKER, JULIE DELANEY.    JULIE AND HER HUSBAND OWN THE "IRISH MEADOWS ALPACA FARM AND STORE" LOCATED
IN NORTHERN JACKSON COUNTY, ON THE BELLEVUE-CASCADE ROAD.
THIER FARM IS A COUPLE MILES EAST OF 4-LANE HIGHWAY 61 AND IS OPEN
