WHO WE ARE and OUR MISSION
In today's world of fast technologies, fake fun and video "non-reality"
.. its hard to build roots and the basics needed with your kids
unless they can have a "fun" hands on experience.
This exhibit is and will be designed to spark the interest of the
visitor as well as educate him or her on just how exciting and
creative people had to be to survive without TV and cell phones.
Take a tour and bring your kids for a great day or night of real
reality!
This is a 501 C-3 non-profit organization designed to pass on the
excitement and fun of our past.
COME and experience the true history of our mechanized growth in agriculture, logging, mining and transportation of the lower Snohomish,
Snoqualmie and Skykomish valleys.

INTERESTS AND EVENTS
Come see our working WATER WHEEL! History in action! Sawing, pumping
water and drilling!
Our current building is 2250 square feet and we are expanding to add
an additional 5800 more !
Thanks! to everyone that made the benefit dinners and actions. We
appreciate your support. We were able to complete the electrical
portion of our upgrade.
This exhibit was
originally the life long dream of a great guy named Jerry Senner.
His collection process started many years ago. He has spent his life
assembling these classic tractors, implements and specialized
equipment for display. His passion for passing on some of the fun and
creative parts of the past to the next generation will inspire
everyone!
Hey! This interactive museum is
Kid Friendly!
This exhibit hosts
examples from the late 1800's until now.
"...I thought I was going to visit a bunch of old stuff...it was
really cool! I had fun and so did my brother!"
"...the variety of
exhibits is astounding!"
"...my kids loved
the time they spent there."
"...I wish I could have brought my Dad. Man, what a memorial to our
farming and agricultural heritage!"

GRANT REQUEST - EXPANSION
NEEDS
We're expanding! Plans
are under way to build and develop and a new facility. We are actively
pursuing grant money and matching funds. The current location on the
fairgrounds is temporary.
Because of the size of
of our growing collections and the tentative future in our current
building, we are in discussions to purchase a separate property that can
house our current artifacts as well as the new
collection coming in that will require an additional 10,000 sq feet of
space! Our
new covered and inside space will grow from 3200 sq feet to an
astounding 30,000 sq feet.
If
you would like to explore supporting this 501 (C-3) tax deductable
organization, please call us.
We're actively adding equipment and components everyday!
Come by and visit!
Our new exhibit
recently donated will be one of the largest single collections in the
Pacific Northwest.
