Horse auction rolls into Sisters

Thousands of people are expected to descend on the Sisters Rodeo Arena April 18-20 for the 23rd Annual Small Farmer's Journal Draft Horse and Horsedrawn Equipment Auction and Swap Meet.

The event is a family-oriented glimpse of working agricultural history. Thousands of items, including draft horses, mules, buggies, freight wagons, buckboards, farm wagons and more will be offered for sale or auction.

Horsedrawn farm implements and old-time tack and tools will be available for viewing and for sale.

Antiques and crafts are featured, particularly Amish-built furniture and quilts.

The swap meet will include everything from windmills to grain grinders, from portable chicken coops to cowboy memorabilia.

Admission to the event is free, but there is a $3 parking fee.

The Small Farmer's Journal is published in Sisters and has an international audience. The periodical features articles, stories and advertising based around principals of labor- and craft-intensive, sustainable small farming.

The quarterly magazine covers a wide variety of subjects related to farming as a way of life, rather than as an industry.

For more information call 549-2064. A schedule of events may be found at www.smallfarmersjournal.com.
