Holiday Cheer and John Deere: Recapping Our Deere Lights Events
How do Deere Lights events bring the Colorado community together?
Winter in the High Plains can be a bit chilly, but we made sure our "Backyard" lots in Loveland, Greeley, and Pueblo were the warmest spots in town. By transforming our equipment rows into "winter wonderlands," we gave local families a place to gather and enjoy the magic of the season without the hustle and bustle of big-box shopping.
Our long-standing history as a trusted dealer has taught us that the best way to support our neighbors is to open our doors and share a cup of cocoa.
- Warm Hospitality: We featured refreshment stations stocked with cookies, candy, apple cider, and hot cocoa to keep the winter "hitch" out of your step.
- A "Green" Glow: The Deere Lights displays gave guests a chance to see our residential equipment in a whole new, festive light.
- Holiday Traditions: Santa Claus made a special appearance at each location, taking time for photos and hearing the Christmas wishes of the next generation of John Deere fans.
Why is The Backyard the perfect partner for your residential property?
You might know us as the place where the ag pros get their heavy iron, but "The Backyard" was created specifically for the homesteaders and residential landowners who want that same professional-grade quality on a smaller scale. We take a consultative approach to your property, ensuring you have the right tools to turn your "chores" into your favorite weekend getaway.
Our staff—including the same expert technicians who service 8R tractors—brings decades of hands-on knowledge to our residential lineup.
- Uncompromising Quality: A smaller footprint doesn't mean a drop in durability; our compact tractors and mowers are built to John Deere's rigorous standards.
- Expert Advice: Whether you are planting a new garden or gathering firewood, we help you select the exact attachments to make the job easier.
- Local Support: Buying from The Backyard means you have the full service and parts backing of 21st Century Equipment right in your neighborhood.
