As part of our efforts to preserve vintage steam and gasoline-powered machinery , the U.P. Steam and Gas Engine Association established a permanent Agricultural Museum in 1986.
The Museum houses an eclectic collection of antique equipment and artifacts. We believe that these items are as much a part of America’s history as the hardy men and women who used them in forging this nation.
