Harvesting Fun in Roebuck

So this year I attended the Harvest Day’s Demonstrations in Roebuck ON.
August 17th and 18th I went to appreciate, enjoy and indulge in our South Grenville farming roots! Seeing antique farm equipment in use gave me a whole new appreciation for my elders. Not to mention the live bands including new guests “The Leftoverz” and Farmer’s Olympic Games! Adults are only $5.00 and Children under 12 GET IN FREE so if you are looking for something to do with the kids next August I suggest heading out to Roebuck.
Don’t forget to come on back on the Sunday morning for the Old Time Farmer’s Breakfast, Adults $5.00 and Children under 12 only $3.00. Craft show and silent auctions on both days demonstrations run from 10am to 4pm. I went with a friend of mine and had a blast and the exhibitors were so nice and informative. This event is hosted by Antique Wheels in Motion Inc, you can find them on Facebook for up do date information on the event. https://www.facebook.com/antiquewheelsinmotion

Art on the 21

The Dutch Hill Gallery is located in Spencerville Ontario and is quite the hidden gem within it’s historical surroundings. While most visit Spencerville for the Mill there is a thriving arts community within. Not only is there the more well known ArtScene on the main drag but just a little bit further down the 21 you will find the Kluck’s 23 acre property complete with refurbished barn that serves as a two story art gallery. Their original works are made with wire and steel supports, then they are wrapped in tinfoil and the details start to form. Then the statue is wrapped in masking tape and lastly fabric is dipped in the paverpol solution and draped over the statue. Once the artwork is complete it can stand the elements (a main selling point besides their menacing beauty is the fact that they can be left outside). If you are ever in the area or would like to make a day trip out to The Dutch Hill Gallery I highly recommend it. The owners are very pleasant, knowledgeable and they offer classes. I know I will be attending their Small Town BIG Art Festival next year.
