The Yesteryear Museum is an all-volunteer self-funded non-profit institution 25 years old, working toward being a living farm and a living rural community. Two buildings house a wide ranging collection of artifacts—some restored and some in their ‘natural state’. There are unique displays of household items, farm equipment, kitchen utensils, an old time post office in a country store, operating gas and hot air engines, many different tractors, items from an old flour mill laboratory, two monster size steam engines with direct current generators, old fashioned printing equipment including an operating Linotype, horse drawn equipment, and more.
