Program of Special Events for 2010

• The American Farm Heritage Museum plans SPECIAL DAYS or events throughout the year.  Many people come to enjoy the activities, entertainent and food. 

In 2010  we are planning an event on the Museum Grounds monthly starting in May.  Weather will play a big part in the events. So you may want to check here for dates times and what will be happening.  Ideas floating around will be a concert with food, car show and truck show, tractor pull, swap meet.  We are planning coffee and entertainment on Saturdays in the barn and the train is looking at hosting birthday parties for the kids.  Stay tuned!  It will be interesting
