Someone had managed to gather together about 60 farm implements and wagons and has decided to put them on display. The vast majority of the farm implements are very old horse drawn machines. The collection includes plows, cultivators, harrows, discs, mowers, corn planters, farm wagons, potato diggers and planters, a hay loader, a manure spreader and two road graders. The display is immediately north of the highway and appears to be accessible 24/7/365, at no charge.

This is the only horse drawn Oliver sickle mower in the collection. Still retaining most of its paint, it is relatively advanced, as sickle mowers go, with all enclosed gears. It has about a 6 foot sickle bar and the date, April 4, 1940 is embossed on the iron.
