GET ready for this year’s Wandin-Silvan Horticultural & Farm Machinery Field Days local community not-for-profit event.
Now in its 49th year and located in the beautiful Yarra Valley region of Victoria, the 2018 Wandin-Silvan Field Days will again provide an opportunity for exhibitors to present a diverse range of horticultural, agricultural and lifestyle products and services – as well as information and demonstrations – directly to patrons.
Wandin-Silvan Field Days president, William Anker said, “This year we will once again feature exhibitors ranging from farm machinery, light industrial equipment, motor vehicles and motorbikes, irrigation equipment and water tanks to information on the latest pest and weed control, fertilisers and chemicals.
“Demonstrations and displays of a wide variety of new equipment, such as chainsaws, ride-on mowers and pruning techniques will be available. Information on the packaging, transporting and labelling of fruit will also be available. Motor vehicles and 4WDs will be well represented, with many exhibitors featuring relevant products.
“Government departments including Natural Resources, Southern Rural Water, Victorian Work Cover Authority and a special ‘Smoke House’ simulation by the Country Fire Authority will be featured.
“Finance, real estate, insurance, mobile telephone companies will be present, along with various grower organisations.
“As we look forward to 2018’s event we thank everyone who contributed to 2017’s successful Wandin-Silvan Field Days event. We congratulate all those who took part and appreciate the time and effort that went into their displays.
“Once again in 2018 we will be holding a Photography Competition with a ‘It’s Not What It Was’ theme, proudly sponsored by Wandin Seville Community Bank. You can view the photo competition flyer on our website.”
