The event will run from Friday, March 31 to Sunday, April 2 and once again there is plenty to see and do.
McPherson Media Group event manager Jamie Gilbert said the expo had a long and rich history in the region, showcasing current and future farming practices for small and medium farm enterprises.
The event has also proved to be a popular social day out for couples and families and provides a welcome $6 million injection into the local economy annually.
Mr Gilbert said many familiar faces would be back as well as some new and exciting exhibitors.
“Due to the flooding late last year in Seymour, we’ve had to adapt the event layout to suit the venue’s current capabilities,” he said.
“Activities, usually found on the main oval, will now be housed on the rear oval.”
This includes vintage car displays, whip cracking championships, as well as Paul McPhail, from Beloka Kelpies, who will be running working dog demonstrations.
Resident chef and butcher team Adrian Hensley and Vic Bonacci have put together a delicious demonstration schedule across Saturday and Sunday, which will run out of the Country Kitchen and Butcher Shop marquee.
“There will also be plenty of activities for families including the kids’ corner, Bunnings’ activity tent and children’s rides,” Mr Gilbert said.
“It really is three fun-filled and informative days with something for everyone.”
Mr Gilbert thanked Mitchell Shire Council, Seymour Football Netball Club and Kings Park Committee of Management for their ongoing support and co-operation.
