Collecting Since 1930 - Founded in 1995
The California Agriculture Museum is home to the nation’s most unique collection of tractors and artifacts. Interactive exhibits and special events tell the history of farm to fork, dating back to the Gold Rush era. Hear local storytellers boast of how California food producers did things bigger and better. California evolved from horse drawn, to steam driven, to fuel powered machines. Galleries and corridors wind you by harvesters, wheel and crawler track-type tractors, combines, trucks, art and photo galleries.
*Relocation Notice*
The Museum is no longer open to the public. The Museum is vacating the building at 1958 hays lane and going into storage while the new location is prepared. The Museum is set to re-open once a new location has been selected. During the Hiatus, there will be private showings of the collection by appointment only. Stay tuned and details of appointments will be announced. There will be opportunities for appointment based tours once situated.
The Board of Directors are finding our forever home. We house the rarest collection of tractors in the world and intended to share that with the community and future generations. We're excited to begin this next chapter of the Museum.
The museum encourages groups & schools to come in and take a guided tour of the rarest tractor collection. Help support our mission to protect, preserve, and educate about early California agriculture and artifacts. The tour guides are a group of volunteers that dedicate their time to the museum and mission. Plan your visit and book a date to tour.
Help us continue to Grow & Educate!
Our mission here as the California Agriculture Museum is to inspire a passion for the diverse history, culture and science for agriculture in California and bring joy to everyone from the youngest to oldest members of our community and, we can't continue to do that without your support.
