Description
Each Easter at Moora a locality just outside of the country town of Rushworth, Victoria the big horses gather for the Moora Working Draught Hose Muster. More than 70 big horses do all kinds of farm work, from working fields to pulling wagons, as it was before tractors took over.
The festival includes displays by blacksmiths and leather workers, scones cooked in a camp oven. There's a tug-of-war between the children and a Clydesdale, coach rides and the chance to drive a Clydesdale (under supervision)
I thoroughly enjoyed the day, it's a great chance to see these magnificent animals up close.
