NASHUA, Iowa (RFD News) — Hundreds of tractor enthusiasts gathered this week for the 27th Annual Great Eastern Iowa Tractorcade, an event celebrating agricultural history and heritage.
Event Manager Matt Kenney joined us on Wednesday’s Market Day Report with an update on this year’s ride.
Despite a brief weather delay, Kenney said participants continued making their way across eastern Iowa as the multi-day event entered its final stretch.
One highlight this year was a stop at the John Deere Museum, giving many participants an opportunity to visit the birthplace of the tractors they were driving.
Kenney says the event remains popular because of the connection many farm families have to older tractors, which often represent generations of family history and some of the most significant purchases ever made on the farm.
