Description

The museum showcases tractors, harvesters and historical equipment in a 70,000 square foot gallery.

Rare and majestic, we're providing hands on experiences for kids of all ages. Stop by and see things that you'd only see in the movies!

The museum maintains one of the rarest collections of mechanical artifacts dating back to the mid-1980s when California immigrants pulled their resources to settle the territory. This was one of California's largest migration periods and people from across the globe banned together to form communities of cooperation and entrepreneurship inventing machines with names that we still recognize today.

Mission

Dedicated to enhancing people's understanding and appreciation of California's rich cultural heritage through the presentation of vehicles and artifacts that represent the evolution of agricultural, transportation, and mechanization.

History

The museum was founded by Fred C. Heidrick Sr in 1997. The communities in Northern California furthered the collection and continue to support presenting some of the rarest finds that date back to California's pioneer era.
