New York Farm Show returns to Syracuse area in February

GEDDES, N.Y. — The New York Farm Show returns to the State Fairgrounds in Geddes from Feb. 23-25, with more than 400 exhibitors expected to display the latest in farm equipment.

“We’re so happy to be back in full swing this year with more products, more exhibitors, and new events for the ag audience,” Scott Grigor, New York Farm Show manager, said in a release. “We expect more people to walk through our doors this year due to the slowing of the pandemic and [are] excited for our annual Toy Tractor Auction and the new Ride & Drive event with Solectrac.”

The New York Farm Show, hosted by the American Agriculturist and Northeast Equipment Dealers Association, features products, seminars, and workshops with the goal of providing farmers the tools to boost productivity and profitability. Some highlights for this year’s event include new products, new exhibitors, and the Ride & Drive sponsored by Solectrac, a company that builds compact electric tractors. Proceeds from the Toy Tractor Auction, set for Feb. 24 at 5 p.m., support a scholarship fund for students pursuing a career in agriculture/agriculture education.

Admission is $5 at the door with those under 18 admitted for free. Those who visit their Northeast Equipment dealer before Feb. 15 can receive free admission.
