The MRVSEA is a non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation and education about the farm community and all that it encompasses. Our annual steam engine show helps us further our mission by allowing our members and exhibitors to display and demonstrate skills and machines used in farm life.
Demonstrations include threshing and rock crushing with steam, straw baling with a stationary baler, lumber sawing, molasses making, hit and miss engines, historical life skills such as churning butter and yarn spinning and sewing, living historians discuss all time periods of life, as well as demonstrations by horse teams and tractors. You can even walk through an early 20th century farm house complete with furniture, quilts and a lunch waiting for the farmer and hands to come out of the field.
