We like to have a lot of fun the farm.  During Wessels' events you can be sure there are activities for the whole family surrounding the featured activities of the event. Occasionally we hold an adults-only event during evening hours.  Event listings are updated here, on our FB page and often found in Nebraska Life & Nebraska Traveler magazines, York Chamber Chats, YCDC Community Calendar and local news sources.

You might be surprised just how much there is to do at Wessels during our family-friendly events.  Bring the family and tell your friends!  Proceeds from all events go towards maintaining our living history displays, educational program, animal care and facilities.

Create your own event!  Wessels Farm is a great place for family reunions, birthday parties, bridal showers, team get-aways and more. We do allow weddings on the farm but we do not close the farm for an event held during our regular open hours as we are a living history farm first, venue as a bonus!  Contact us to begin planning your event today!

Spend some time exploring antique engines, cars, tractors and motorcycles- all years, makes and models! Great food, games for the whole family and antique farm equipment demos spread throughout the day.

Shop the Mercantile for unique Nebraska-made gifts. Local vendors will be set up with baked goods and hand-made items.

Tour Dave’s house, the schoolhouse and barn. Visit the animals or relax on the porch. Enjoy woodworking demos by Alex Adams of Type A Furniture and see our collection of antique tools.

Interested in showing your machinery or providing a farm demo? Give us a call!  We’d like to have tractor games and end the day with our tractor parade! No charge for exhibitors.

Coffey’s Wild Hog BBQ will be serving lunch!

DJ Danny Oberg will be providing the PA system and family-friendly music.
