The Sculpture Park is located just off of US Highway 10 taking the main exit into New York Mills, on the corner of Broadway Avenue North and Township Parkway. You will be intrigued by the many sculptures, designed and built by local artists, including the world's largest tractor sculpture. The most recent addition to the Sculpture Park is The Barn and Grain Bin Gazebo. This project was a cooperated effort between the New York Mills Cultural Center and the City of New York Mills, with many volunteers and donors who worked together to make it come to fruition. Rest a moment at the picnic tables, or during the summer and fall months, take in the Farmer's Market, which is held on Wednesdays and most Saturdays at the park. ~ From city website, link below.
The last time I was hear someone had put a lot of magnetic poetry words on the wheel of the tractor statue. Some interesting groups of words were spotted.
If you visit, take time to look at the ears of corn, in both the yellow fence piece and the green rows of corn. All of the ears were cast with images on both of the flat sides of the ear.
