Workshop update! πŸ“£

I recently sent out an email through SignUpGenius announcing new workshops added through September. Unfortunately, a large number of emails bounced back and were automatically removed from the mailing list. Those addresses will no longer receive workshop updates.

The problem is… I recognized several of those emails as people who are still actively attending workshops! 😬

Please check your email filters and settings to make sure emails from SignUpGenius are allowed and not being sent to spam or promotions folders.

If you did NOT receive the workshop update email, there’s a good chance your email address was removed from the list. To be added back, please email me at [email protected].

I don’t want anyone to miss out on upcoming workshops! 😊

A restored Farmall B was generously donated by Robinson Farm est. 1879 by Steve and Jackie Robinson. Our restoration volunteers will take great care of it and don't be surprised to see it featured with the other tractors when we start our Tractors in the Park series again on June 6, 2026.

WEDNESDAYS EXTENDED HOURS 1PM – 7PM

If you’re looking for something fun and educational to do on a Wednesday afternoon with the family, be sure to check out the Collin County Farm Museum that resides on the Myers Park & Event Center grounds.
The Farm Museum is full of old tractors and other farm implements that have been donated to the museum by families in Collin and the surrounding counties. Our volunteers donate their time & expertise to bring the artifacts back to life. So, come visit the museum and hear the rumble of the tractors; honk the horn of the Model-T and climb aboard the buggy! It’s a fun time for the whole family.

Check out the Collin County Farm Museum page for more information about the museum, and about the hands-on craft workshops that they offer.
