About The National Agricultural Center and Hall of Fame

Each of the exhibits at the center cover a different topic, and offers fun learning for those curious kids! You can visit the Museum of Farming, where there is 20,000 sq ft of space devoted to antique farm machinery and artifacts. Can you imagine what it would have been like to use those back in the day? Pretty tough work!
The Gallery of Art showcases rural artifact, including the plow owned by US President Harry S. Truman himself! There is also an 1902 Dar truck, and a hoarse-drawn mail wagon. Amazing!
