The Farm and Ranch Museum presents unscheduled special demonstrations
during the crop growing season each year. When you stop by,
you may see planting corn with a check-row corn planter,
cross cultivation, irrigation of the fields, or perhaps the harvesting of sugar beets.
During the annual Harvest Festival on the third weekend of September,
volunteers demonstrate farm practics of the past.
Visitors can harvest potatoes to take home,
or try their hand pitching bundles of wheat into the thresher,
or hay into the baler.
Visit the Farm and Ranch Museum and trace the history of the development
of farming and ranching on the High Plains.
Explore the extensive collection of the machines that
turned the prairie into one of the most productive agricultural areas on earth.
