Museum and Event Destinations

The Heidrick Ag History Center is a nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing people’s education, understanding and appreciation of the rich heritage of agriculture and transportation. The collection of Antique Tractors and Trucks introduces visitors to vintage iron horses and mechanical equipment. The exhibits honor our agricultural and transportation heritage. Two main galleries feature the Fred C. Heidrick Antique Ag Collection, and the Hays Antique Truck Museum. Each gallery traces mechanization of the past, while it showcases the genius of our forefathers. Visitors Can tour the main gallery on their own or make arrangements for a tour group. The museum, courtyard and event center is a cornerstone of Historic Woodland, and a destination for private and public events and meetings. It is a breathtaking backdrop for any occasion.
