If there is one thing for sure, it’s that northeast Iowa has no shortage of collector tractors, evidenced by the participation in the annual Castalia Tractor Days events.

Each year the organizational committee selects a unique tractor owned by an area resident to highlight in the parade and the park afterwards. This year the honor belongs to Gene Uhlenhake of Ossian and his 1968 1650 Cockshutt.
