The good ol’ way
While last week’s Huron County Plowing Match focused largely on the results of those riding
machines, there was plenty to be celebrated for those putting a little muscle into it and turning
up dirt the old-fashioned way. The match was held in Howick for the first time in years, hosted
in the Gorrie area by Ray and Anita Dykstra at their home farm. (Shawn Loughlin photo)
