Medina Hay Baler Parade Returns To Medina Town Square
More than 20 tractors pull New Holland hay balers in Medina for a 1954 Hay Baler Parade reenactment. John Wanko of Medina Farmers Exchange sold a record number of balers in 1954 and invited farmers to drive to town, hitch up, and parade from the fairgrounds up Smith Road to Court Street around the square. Now the Medina County Antique Power Association and the Medina County Historical Society revived the event after 69 years.
