Collecting Since 1930 - Founded in 1995
Welcome
The California Agriculture Museum & Event Center is home to the nation’s most unique collection of tractors and artifacts. Interactive exhibits and special events tell the history of farm to fork, dating back to the Gold Rush era. Hear local storytellers boast of how California food producers did things bigger and better. California evolved from horse drawn, to steam driven, to fuel powered machines. Galleries and corridors wind you by harvesters, wheel and crawler track-type tractors, combines, trucks, art and photo galleries.
The museum is dedicated to enhancing the understanding and appreciation of California’s rich cultural heritage through the presentation of its collection, and rotating exhibits. The kid’s zone is designed to bring families back to a simpler time when play depended on your imagination.
