A Drive Green Challenge event took place in Danville, Virginia, on Saturday, June 2, as people from around the state who have used farm equipment came together to celebrate the national push by John Deere, the Chatham Star Tribune reported.
According to the news outlet, the event featured a number of pieces of farm equipment from local retailers and tractor enthusiasts, and John Deere representatives were on hand to demonstrate the benefits of and how to use the company's machines.
