The annual festival, now permanently scheduled on Fathers Day weekend, is expected grow with each and every event. In fact, in just a few months plan on attending the heritage foods festival at the farm, where you'll get a much closer look at the handling and preparation of food as it was done well over a century ago.
In the works for next year include a day camp for children, where kids can learn the many aspects of farm life.
Bates County Live will continue to follow the progress of the Poplar Heights Farm and will publish more info about upcoming events in the near future.

Severe Thunderstorm Warning for northeastern Bates County

Severe Thunderstorm Watch in effect
The National Weather Service has issued a Severe Thunderstorm Watch to be in effect until 2 a.m. tomorrow morning. Here's the latest forecast:
Rest of Tonight
Mostly cloudy. Showers...thunderstorms likely in the evening...then a chance of showers and thunderstorms after midnight. Some thunderstorms may be severe in the evening. Lows around 70. South winds 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 60 percent.
Overnight storms had more bark than bite
Just after midnight this morning, a large thunderstorm that spanned from Bates County to north Kansas City rolled through the area that threatened large hail and high winds. While hail size ranged from pea to nickel size, high strait line winds toppled trees and left area streets littered with leaves and twigs. In the rural areas, some barns and sheds were stripped of their tin.
Areas hardest hit appear to be in the northernmost part of the county including Adrian and Drexel. Fortunately, the heaviest damage reported was a tree on a car and downed power line, both in Adrian.
The highest wind speed recorded in the county was 74 mph in Adrian.
Tonight's forecast calls for some thundershowers after midnight, but it won't be an encore performance of last night, according to the latest forecast.
