The Raitt Homestead Farm Museum will be hosting the 27th Eliot Tractor and Engine Show featuring International Harvester Tractors and Stover Engines. This event has been delighting farm machinery and engine enthusiasts from around the country for decades and is honored to continue this tradition. There will be a wide selection of historic and antique tractors on display, from a variety of manufacturers including IH, John Deere, Farmall, Massey Harrris, Ford, Allis Chalmers, and many others going back as far as the early 1900’s. Dozens of hit n miss - one lunger engines from different companies like Stover, Hercules, International Harvester (McCormick Deering), John Deere (Waterloo Engine Works), Maytag and Fairbanks Morse. Collectors from across the country attend the event each year bringing an assortment of antique farm machinery for visitors to see. “You will see just about every kind of equipment that was used for farming,” stated Tom Raitt, current president of the RHFM. “We never know what will show up but that’s what makes the show interesting.” With a dedicated group of volunteers and sponsors who help keep this show going, we hope to encourage more people and families to come and marvel at these important inventions and how they relate to farm life and beyond. We thank you in advance for any help you may provide in promoting this community event
