Farm Technology Days back better than ever in 2021
After a year off, Eau Claire County organizers say Farm Technology Days is back and stronger than ever. At several points we weren t even sure we were going to even have a show, but we kept pushing and planning to make 2021 the best show ever, said Mike Gitner, Chair of the Eau Claire County Executive Committee.
Set to open Tuesday morning, the three-day outdoor farm show runs July 20-22 and will be hosted by Huntsinger Farms, the world s largest producer of horseradish.
From a back-to-back schedule of equine demonstrations to a diverse and entertaining program in the Rural Event Center, Farm Tech Days 2021 will be a jam-packed show that will keep attendees busy, fed, educated, and entertained.
The Rygg family, which operates Huntsinger Farms, was meant to host Farm Technology Days back in 2020. But luckily, they were offered a second chance to do it in 2021.
Eric Rygg, family patriarch, said he was heartbroken to have to cancel the 2020 show, but he also saw a silver lining that showed him opportunities to make the 2021 show even better than ever. However, he said it wasn t just as simple as a yes to make it happen for the Ryggs again. (Farm) Technology Days had already cancelled the show for this year that was slated slated for Jefferson County. It s very rare – in any other year . that slot would have already been filled by another host farm, Rygg said. We d already done 80% of the planning. I used the analogy we were on the 20 yard line. We just needed to get into the end zone, and we didn t want all that planning to go to waste.

Committee members in Eau Claire County have been planning the 2021 Farm Technology Days for four long years, thanks to the pandemic that sidelined the show for a year.
A resilient bunch, members of the various committees stayed the course and are optimistic that this year s show will provide a positive experience for showgoers. We know it s not the same path other Wisconsin Farm Technology Days committees have taken, but we ve been able to adapt and work through things thanks to a lot of good leaders on the committee, said Mike Gintner, Chair of the Eau Claire County Executive Committee. “We’ve taken the extra year we’ve had to plan an even better show.
