Auctioneer’s Note: At 104 years old, Donald “Shorty” Peterson has decided to rent his farm and slow down a little. This is an outstanding offering of low-time, late model, farm machinery. Although online bidding is available, make plans now to attend this live, on-site auction in person to help celebrate Shorty’s long and well-lived life on the farm. At the same time and place, we will also sell the remaining farm equipment of Shorty’s long-time neighbors, Pat and the late Ron Kerres.
Equipment Questions – Call Ron Parkinson: (309) 791-2312
Load-out assistance until 4:00 pm sale day and Friday, August 28th | 8:00 am – 3:00 pm only.
Please Note: Not many small items, so be on time! Tractors and combine will sell early in the auction. The Kerres machinery will sell after the Peterson machinery.
