The Chatham fanning mill with hand tools for grain harvesting
Visitors to the Pasto Agricultural Museum journey back to a time when farmers used muscle power, both human and animal, to produce food and fiber for a growing nation. The museum has approximately 1,000 rare and unusual farm and household items dating back to the 1840s. Visitors can learn about early farm life and gain hands on experience with the history of agriculture and household equipment by turning the cranks and moving levers.
