Celebrate the sights, sounds and smells of bringing in the harvest.  Steam power, gas power, diesel power - we have it all! 

From smoking, chugging steam engines to steaming hot fresh bread, it’s Harvest Festival at the Reynolds-Alberta Museum!

See more than 40 pieces of vintage agricultural machinery in action including tractors, threshers, binders, swathers, separators, combines and stationary engines.

Bread baking demonstrations happen each day, all day long. Learn how to bake everything from focaccia and multi-grain bread to bagels and cinnamon buns.  There’ll be plenty of free samples – made even better when spread with the butter you’ve made yourself! Or buy fresh baked bread and goodies from the Farmers’ Market to take home.

Watch farm hands at work with fieldwork demonstrations. Get a closer look at the massive smoking steam traction engines, the real crowd-pleasers of this show.
