About this event
Join us on a leisurely Saturday drive to a small farm town festival in eastern Oregon for the Dufur Threshing Bee
The Dufur Threshing Bee is a yearly celebration where local farmers and ranchers bring out their antique farm equipment to demonstrate the old harvesting and threshing farming techniques. There will be steam engines, horse drawn farm equipment and a tractor pull competition. There are also artisan craft booths, a quilt show, yard sales and food vendors. You can also visit the Dufur Historical Society Museum to tour the old one room schoolhouse, log cabin, cookhouse and blacksmith shop. Of course, most of the fun is getting there.
The plan is to meet at 9:30 and start at 10:00 am from the Sandy Safeway parking lot. We will be traveling east along the Mt Hood Highway through Government Camp, north on Hwy 35 and then east on spirited Forest Rd 44 (Camp Baldwin/Dufur Rd) to Dufur.
After a reasonable time at the Threshing Bee, we head south to Maupin and the Bakeoven Bar & Grill for a late lunch along the scenic Deschutes River.
From Maupin, we head back through Tygh Valley along twisty scenic Wamic Forest Rd 48 and the Mt Hood Highway towards Sandy.
