Upper Canada Two Cylinder Club’s Annual John Deere Show

The Upper Canada Two Cylinder Club is thrilled to announce that its annual John Deere Show will be held this weekend from July 25 to 27, 2025, in Palmerston, Ontario.

The festivities kicked off with a John Deere Tractor Parade on the evening of Thursday, July 24, winding through Downtown Palmerston.

This popular event promises entertainment for all ages, featuring tractor pulls, children’s activities, food trucks, a car show, a fashion show, a silent auction, and daily 50/50 draws.

Visitors can also enjoy a variety of home business and craft vendors, working demonstrations, and an impressive display of antique tractors and equipment.

The spotlight for this year’s show will shine on the iconic John Deere Model “A” and Model “B” tractors. The Model “A” debuted in 1934, while the Model “B” was introduced in 1935 and will be celebrating its 90th anniversary in 2025.

Over the years, both models were available in various configurations to meet the needs of different farming practices and regions. The Model “A” was eventually succeeded by the Model “60,” and the Model “B” by the Model “50” in 1952.

This year’s guest brand is the J.I. CASE Corporation, and all Case equipment.

Meet Willy: California Farm Bureau’s 2025 Farm Dog of the Year!

We’re excited to introduce Willy, a miniature long-haired dachshund with a big heart and even bigger courage, and the Grand Prize winner of this year’s Farm Dog of the Year Contest!

Willy may be small, but he’s become an indispensable partner on owner Marshal Hagedorn’s forestry and cattle operations in Shasta, Tehama, and Siskiyou counties. Adopted in 2023, he quickly found his place on the ranch, helping manage critters, tagging along for long days in the woods, and offering unwavering companionship during demanding logging work.

Willy has even taken naturally to moving cattle, surprising calves (and more than a few full-grown cows!) with his burst of energy from the tall grass. As Marshal put it: “He goes with me everywhere every single day.”

Congratulations to Willy and his family, a perfect example of how every good farm dog, no matter the size, helps keep California agriculture running strong.
