Siblings Oliver, Hunter, Alice and Evelyn are counting down the days to the Whittlesea Show.

This year’s show will be held at the Whittlesea Showgrounds on November 4-5.

Now in its 158th year, the show highlights the best of country life.

Whittlesea Agricultural Society secretary Tracey Goss said there was plenty of family fun planned for this year’s show.

She said there were 70 free events as part of the ticket price, including wood chopping, show jumping and vintage tractor displays.

There will also be an animal nursery, art pavilion, food expo and performances by local schools.

The show is on 9am-5pm both days.
