Exploring the Milling of Logs with Okie Homesteading Expo 2023

One of my favorite highlights of the Expo was the video demonstration of milling logs. It was an exceptional experience to observe the experts from Okie Homesteading handling life-sized equipment to mill logs into desired sizes. Sawmill enthusiasts were able to view not only footage of the process, but also ask any questions they might have had. The inclusion of raised seating and camera angles ensured that everybody had a clear view of the demonstrations.

The Nitty-Gritty Details of Rock Hill Farms

As a content writer for Rock Hill Farms, I was particularly excited to be part of the event. It was great to see so many of our followers enjoying the extensive range of tractors on display. We also had personalized merchandise available for sale. The booth team was kept busy with curious visitors asking questions and purchasing souvenirs and T-shirts. Visitors left the booth with a sense of belonging to a community of shared interests.

Meet-Up with Beekeepers

The Expo also provided me with the perfect opportunity to meet up with Beekeepers, a local business that specializes in beekeeping equipment and services. I was able to interact with the owners and learn about their operations, the health and financial benefits of having bees, as well as how sustainable it can be. The keepers also informed me about their workshops on honey and beekeeping, which are open to the public.

Social Media Handles and Video Playlists

The organizers made social media integration a breeze with tagged posts. A video playlist was created for the event, rendering it easier for participants to access recorded content after the Expo. Both Okie Homesteading and KeepingItDutch had active social media handles, driving participation, and engaging attendees throughout the weekend. The hashtags were great for tagging photos, joining conversations, and networking.
