Hoosick Falls to Host 5th Annual Walter A. Wood Tractor & Agriculture Show

October 5, 2018 By steve bradley

On October 6 from 9 am to 4 pm, Hoosick Falls will be full of tractors, hit and miss engines, vendors, demonstrations, hayrides, and lots of history!

On this day Hoosick Falls celebrates the history of farming and agriculture in the community. Wood Park will be overflowing with tractors of all brands, sizes and running power. Hit and miss engines will be puffing away along with many displays relating to the Walter A. Wood Co.

Enjoy a tractor parade at noon, followed by music from the Hill Hollow Band. Bring the kids-there will be animals and kid friendly activities. Stop at the American Legion Post 40 and play a game of corn hole. The Louis Miller Museum, run by the Hoosick Township Historical Society, will have all 11 rooms open. For one day only you will be able to look through payroll records, manufacturing books and other journals belonging to the Walter A. Wood Manufacturing Company. Take a hayride through the Village and enjoy all the stops offered along the route. There will be food, vendors, and farm and agricultural products.
