“Elgin County Plowing Match Collection” – 2009

This print is part of my 2009 Elgin County Plowing Match Collection. The county held their match in 2009 at the farms of Tom Bradish near Talbotville. Dave and I got up and hurried through breakfast and gathered our cameras and loaded my scooter. We were off and what a fine day it was. The turnout of plowmen was excellent. We had a wonderful day and these pen and ink sketches are a good record of this event.  2010’s county match was held on Sparta Line in August. We went for an hour but then had to leave to get to Milton for the heavy horse event at the Country Heritage Park, but that’s another story. I loved both the antique horse plowing and the many and varied antique tractors and plows. Such an assortment to please any and all fans’ particular fancy! – Jenny
