Antique Acres

Iowa has always had a rich tradition of farming and agriculture. One of these traditions sits in the rural area of Cedar Falls. It is called Antique Acres. Founded in 1964, Antique Acres is best known for its yearly Old Time Power Show in August, which is dedicated to the preservation and operation of antique machinery. Here you will find exhibitors displaying collections of farming equipment of all kinds, jelly being made on an old fashioned wood stove, or butter being churned. A “Parade of Power” from antique garden tractors to powerful steam engines, threshing, plowing, saw milling and many other equipment demonstrations. Tractor pull events are held throughout the show with modern, classic and antique tractors. The tractor pull also includes a "fun pull" if you would like to hook up and see how far you can make it down the track. A museum at the Acres houses many old time and valuable pieces which can also be viewed during one of the many tours conducted for out-of-town groups, schools or just someone stopping by. A campground with shelter and stage are also available as well as an air-conditioned hall with kitchen facilities to meet your needs.
