Farm Equipment Preservation

Thanks to Jacob Weibel and other Boy Scouts from BSA Troop 28 the old farm equipment that has been at the museum for several years has been restored.

Jacob was the lead scout to prepare the exhibit area, restore the equipment by cleaning and painting and placing the various items into the exhibit area. This project by Jacob will earn him his Eagle Scout Badge. He had lots of challenges with the rusty old equipment and with lots of help, he got the task completed. Some of the items on display date back to the circa 1900’s.

The museum board members want to thank Jacob and his helpers for turning a number of pieces of rusty old antique farm equipment into a thing of beauty. Visitors who walk the trail have commented on how much better the area looks and shared their comments on social media.
