Go back to school! See a one-room school house as a child would have experienced it during the 1900's. After class stop by the general store and hospital exhibits.
The Quonset
What did settlers live in when they first moved to the area? Well, they may have erected a sod house or they may have lived in a modestly furnished shack similar to the one featured in the pioneering exhibit. Other points of interest include threshing, wheelwright exhibits, and a music section.
Blacksmith Shop
A good blacksmith could manufacture or repair anything. The 1935 blacksmith shop features an anvil and forge as well as many tools that assisted in the repair of machinery and shoeing of horses.
The Cook Car
When a threshing crew was hungry, there was no waiting. Cook cars were a common sight during harvest in the 1920's. The cook car houses an array of pioneer kitchen wares.
The Machinery Shed
Do antique automobiles and machinery interest you? See classics such as a Model T Ford, a Federal Truck, and a 1928 Hart-Parr. Most of these machines are in working condition thanks to our dedicated volunteers. Our collection of over 150 licence plates dating from 1917 to the present day are always a crowd favorite.
