On April 7, Farm-Rite Equipment held the first of its four open house events this spring. Employees of the company's Willmar, Minn., location welcomed guests to the facility at 1515 Litchfield Ave. SW.

Customers had a chance to see the company's newest offerings and hear details of Farm-Rite's new facility, which should be opening in 2024.

Turnout was huge, as more than 600 brats and burgers were served, and beautiful weather ruled the day.

"We had a great turnout and saw a lot of our customers today. It was a great way to say thank you for your business," said Dan Ronning, general manager of Farm-Rite of Willmar. "We look forward to opening our new facility in 2024 that will give us expanded service and parts departments as well as sales under one roof."
