Thrown by Loomberah's War Memorial Hall committee, the entries perfectly summed up farming in 2020 - plentiful and the biggest and best seen in years.

Committee member Liz Blackwood said with the drought breaking they weren't sure they would run the competition this year, but with COVID rearing its head it "gave us another reason" to do it.

"It was absolutely a reflection of the year that's been," she said.

"The judges, Liz Taylor our local postie and councillor Juanita Wilson, had a tough job cut out for them in deciding.

"It was very competitive this year, the physical size of the entries continues to grow each year, and this year we had about five to six metre high structures of hay bales.

"Now the community does seem to looking for it to return annually, become something of a tradition."

From giant snowmen, to relaxing Santas and terrific trees, it was a case of no holes barred for the 31 contestants.
