Horse Progress Days 2017

Rural Heritage's annual coverage of Horse Progress Days is in Leola, Pennsylvania. This 25th annual event was started by a group of Amish farmers to display and demonstrate new horse drawn equipment. It has become a place for farmers and manufacturers to share ideas to develop new and better tools as well as a place to encourage community.
Video of draft animals at work including Percherons, Belgians, Shires, Fjords, mule and donkeys. Watch new equipment being pulled by these beautiful animals.
Joe interviews an number of people including:
Becky from Zimmerman Harness - discussing trends in draft animal harness as well as the business they do year round.
Stephane Parrain from Jordant - a French horse drawn equipment maker.
