North Spokane Farm Museum Guest Book - Spokane, WA - Guest Books on Waymarking.com

In the museum, in the 1950s kitchen, one will find this guest book on the kitchen table. Fitting place for it.

How to get here: Just north of the far north end of Mead, WA, turn west off Highway 395 onto Monroe Road. Follow it for 1.1 miles then angle right on Monroe. Follow Monroe for another 3.9 miles and turn in the lane, south side of the road. At North Hazard Road Monroe becomes West Ridgeway Road. Continue along it to the museum, another .3 miles. There are signs along the way.

For those interested in the life of the settler and the farmer (both husband wife) of days gone by, this is a great museum. Run by a farm family on their working farm, it contains dozens of pieces of farm equipment, tractors and machinery, both in restored and unrestored condition. As well, there are many smaller artefacts such as hand tools, license plates, etc., etc.

They haven't forgotten the farmer's home, having included household and kitchen artefacts by the dozen. Many of us (ourselves especially) could spend a full day slowly browsing the collection. It is well worth the time and the small cost to visit and chat with the owners at length.

"The Red Shed" Located 15 miles north of Spokane, Washington off state highway 395, the North Spokane Farm Museum is located in a 5,000 sq. ft. building. "The Red Shed" is considered a teach and touch museum which displays farm machinery and farm artifacts from 1850-1950. All equipment is painstakingly researched and restored to it's near original splendor. Once a year at noon on the 4th Sunday of June, the equipment is demonstrated with a new specialty chosen each year. Other featured displays are a working 50's kitchen, a 40's bedroom, a 20's kitchen, and the largest collection of Ironstone China in the Pacific Northwest with more than 36 sets from 1850 to 1976.
