The 2016 International Plowing Match has signed up 350 Minto volunteers but it is still looking for a few more.

The IPM will be held in Minto in 2016 at the farm of Anne and Earl Schneider, south of Harriston.

IPM Chair Ron Faulkner says anyone interested in volunteering can pick up papers at the Minto municipal office.

Ron Faulkner says volunteers usually find the work a lot of fun, whether it’s driving a tractor or directing visitors.
