Canada's Outdoor Farm Show will kick off today and there will be over 600 exhibitors on site this year.

WOODSTOCK - Canada's Outdoor Farm Show has returned to Discover Farm Woodstock!

It will officially get underway today and will continue tomorrow and on Thursday.

President Doug Wagner says they will have over 600 exhibitors on site.

"It's outdoors so we can offer lots of field demonstrations and we do encourage exhibitors, even in their booths, if they have something to demonstrate to fire it up so we can see it operate."

Wagner says visitors can watch incredible drone inventions specifically designed for the horticulture industry as well as a helicopter demonstration.

"The other one that's going to be kind of interesting this year is Great Lakes Helicopters is coming and they're actually going to demonstrate aerial spraying of crops. That's one way of spraying crops is with a helicopter."

There will also be a large-scale solar-powered robot for vegetable crops that offers precision seeding and weeding.

Tickets for the Farm Show cost $25 each and you can find more information online here.
