The Museum has been in continuous operation since 1975, transporting its visitors back in time to the turn of the century to experience the lifestyle of the early 1900’s --- with its vintage furnishings and artifacts, historical documents, and the histories of our local pioneer families. The Museum offers free docent-led tours, school field trips, and hosts various small events. The Museum has been sustained over the past forty plus years by generous donations from the community.

Hundreds of elementary-age children have toured the museum and board members have taken items from the museum to elementary classrooms in an effort to bring history to life through presentations on how food was harvested, laundry cleaned, and food prepared.
