Photos from 2017 Northumberland Beef Farmers BBQ in Dartford, Ont, 06 July

Hey readers and beef farming enthusiasts, here are photos from annual Northumberland Beef Farmers BBQ which was held this year on Ryan Campbell's farm in Dartford, Ontario - 06 July 2017

It was a warm Thursday evening - the party started around suppertime,

People gathered high on a hilltop , the crest of the same hill that Dartford itself is on the side of ..

And they gathered to eat beef

And guess the number of square bales in the wagon... what was the answer?

and chat and catchup on the strange times they find themselves living in

Kent Hodgin Country Music played all the hits from the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, 2000s, and 2010s. They played like champs all evening long...

Ian Davis of Birds-i.ca flew his drone around, maybe i can get his footage if anyone wants to see it.. its likely spectacular ..

There was also lots of equipment on display

Balage systems

and ... Kubota something

see you next year!
