Antique Farm Days

Tractors in a line at Antique Farm Days

The Mission of the Southwest Virginia Antique Farm Days organization is to restore and preserve farm machinery and implements that were used in the agriculture-based society of early Southwest Virginia. These efforts are directed toward educating the public and future generations, through displays and demonstrations, about the importance that early farm machinery played in shaping life in Franklin County and surrounding areas!

Event Information

Each year this event is held on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, June 13 - 15, 2025, at the Franklin County Parks and Recreation Department on Sontag Road. The entry fee is 6 dollars.  

On Saturday, June 14, 2025, there will be games and activities for children to enjoy for free provided by the Franklin County Recreation Department.  You never know, but there may be some "tiny" pedal tractors there and other fun outdoor games.  Come find us near the large shelter!
