Tractor Discovery Day June 14 at Tractor Supply Company
Experience vintage farm history up close at Tractor Discovery Day 2025, presented by Tractor Supply Co. in partnership with the Will County Threshermen’s Association (WCTA).
The event takes place on Saturday, June 14, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Tractor Supply Co., 2161 E. Laraway Road, New Lenox,
Tractor Discovery Day offers a close-up look at beautifully restored antique tractors and early farm equipment, giving visitors of all ages a chance to learn how these machines once powered American agriculture. It’s a perfect outing for families, history buffs, and anyone curious about farm life in earlier generations.
“We want people to experience more than just a display—we want them to see how this equipment worked and how it supported everyday life on the farm,” said Brad Eike, WCTA President. “It’s also a great way for grandparents and kids to connect over shared stories and memories.”
The event is free and open to the public, with plenty of opportunities for photos alongside vintage tractors — a favorite for multi-generational families and social media alike.
Attendees will also have the chance to purchase raffle tickets for WCTA’s annual fundraiser. This year’s raffle prizes include a kid’s pedal tractor and a collectible farm toy, with winners drawn during the 63rd Annual WCTA Show, July 17–20, 2025, at Spiess Farm in Manhattan.
While you’re there, enjoy browsing Father’s Day and seasonal offerings inside Tractor Supply Co. — a great stop for gifts, gear, and rural lifestyle essentials.
Whether you’re a seasoned collector or just curious about Illinois farming roots, Tractor Discovery Day is a fun and educational way to experience agricultural history up close.
