Working Oxen Demo

***THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED DUE TO WEATHER***

Join us for a family-friendly day of working steer and oxen demonstrations. Bring your family and learn about this traditional form of draft power, meet some amazing animals, and find out why working oxen are making a comeback in New England.

Our day will start at 10am with an engaging talk from Melanie Brundage who travels around the region with her family demonstrating working oxen and sharing her passion with others. Stay for the day for live demonstrations of teamsters and their oxen pulling a stone boat, logging, and plowing a field to be planted with wheat. You’ll also have a chance to meet these impressive animals and their handlers up close.
