Weideman House has Permanent Home

Things went smoothly on Thursday, March 31, as the Weideman Farm House was carefully moved onto a permanent foundation. Sitting on top of a full basement the house will eventually become a museum display to the importance of agricultural families of Western Nebraska.

Volunteers needed!

There are many volunteer opportunities at FARM during the spring and summer months to help with a variety of tasks and activities. Give us a call at 308-436-1989 if you would like to help.
