It's park like surroundings are home to multitudes of horse drawn and early mechanical farm machinery and equipment, farmsteads, the Magness Room displaying over 3,000 antique hand tools, the steam engine used to power the Old Naches sawmill, a collection of bells from the valley schools, a working sawmill, blacksmith shop, apple packing line and the home of the Lindeman Tractor. All of this and more are combined to create this one of a kind Agricultural Museum, and the largest historical museum in motion in the Pacific Northwest.

Today we would like to introduce you to Thomas. At 14, he is our youngest volunteer.
In his own words, this is what he enjoys about the Central Washington Agricultural Museum:

“Volunteering at the letterpress, and the museum as a whole has helped develop useful life skills, as well as life long friendships with other volunteers.”

Hello! I’m Mike Haider, a volunteer at the Central Washington Agricultural Museum. Although I don’t currently live in Union Gap, I consider myself a lifelong “Gapper.” Beginning in the late ’70s, I participated in the Union Gap Civic Betterment Committee. In the early ’80s and ’90s, I supported the “old” Old Town Days and the Miss Union Gap pageant. For the last 10 years or so, I’ve spent my extra time with the Ag Museum.
At the Ag Museum, I've had the opportunity to restore a hearse from the 1800s and a milk delivery wagon. My favorite project has been retrofitting a tractor with a double seat! I also really enjoy talking with people in the train car during our community events.
The museum is a great place not only to visit with local friends but also to meet people from across the country and around the world.
No matter what your skill level is, there will be something you can do at the Ag Museum. We call it work, but “casual labor” may be a better term!

Come on by and check us out!

Today we are celebrating our volunteer (and former board president ) Wally Moen as he returns from his Honor Flight. The Honor Flight is a special journey that honors America’s veterans by taking them to Washington, D.C. to visit the memorials dedicated to their service and sacrifice. These trips provide an opportunity for veterans to reflect, share stories, connect with fellow veterans, and receive the recognition and gratitude they deserve.

❤️ It’s more than a trip—it’s a heartfelt thank-you to the brave men and women who served our country. Welcome home, Wally, and thank you for your service! 🇺🇸

Hello, my name is Allison Gasseling and I’m a volunteer at the agricultural museum! Along with that I am a student at WSU majoring in animal sciences. I started my journey at the CWAM when I was crowned Miss Washington agHERculture. Spreading my knowledge and love for agriculture has been something I have loved to do my whole life. Through volunteering at the museum I get to do just that. From working with kids to just talking to anyone I can, my time spent at the agriculture museum is always so fun. Agriculture is so prominent in our valley and the museum plays a large role in educating our community. My favorite part of being at the museum is being around good people who have the same passions that I do.
