IH/Farmall is our specialty. We sell used parts and an occasional tractor. We have a shop where we tear down, restore, and repair many kinds of farm machinery. If you don't see it here in the store, please ask as I may have it here. For questions please call 419-822-0495.
~ ABOUT ME ~
I used to hate it when my dad wanted me to take him to this field and then to that one. "Don't go anywhere because I need you to take me to get the tractor..." Boy that got old. When I was a teenager I swore to my grandmother that I would never marry a farmer. So what do I do?? Of course...marry a farmer. I must say that I wouldn't have it any other way. My husband and I have been happily married for 10 years now. My grandmother reminds me quite frequently what I told her so many years ago. My husband and I have 2 children, a 10 year old daugher and a 6 year old son.
My husband and I run a farm equipment repair shop. He does all the repair work and I take care of the salvage parts. We have done the repair work full time since 2001, although my husband was working at it part time for several years before that, and added the salvage parts in 2005. YES I do tear down my own tractors. I have my own set of tools and I do use them myself. A couple of months ago a gentleman came into my shop and watched me work for a minute or 2 and told me I was "wierd". Wierd or not I do enjoy what I do. Since I began tearing apart tractors I have learned so much and the more I do, the more I love it! (Now putting them back together is a whole other story!) This job has enabled me to stay at home with my kids, go on field trips, and help out at their school occasionally. We also farm around 200 acres of corn, soybeans, and wheat. Of course we only use IH equipment.
I love to garden. I have a veggie garden and do a lot of canning and freezing in the summer. There are also lots of flower beds throughout my yard. My son enjoys gardening as well. He loves to plant veggies and take care of them. My daughter likes to help me design new flower beds and pick colors. All of our flower beds are works in progress. They are always being changed with more plants being added and some being moved. I have a wonderful garden group here on ebay. All the members are very kind and helpful and it makes me proud to be a part of it. http://groups.ebay.com/forum/Gardeners-Life/Welcome/1500011004
