The St. Clair County Farm Museum was proposed in 1964 by the administrator of the St. Clair County Medical Center. He saw how technology was rapidly changing life in rural America and realized that there was a need to savor a slice of the past so that the area’s youth could explore and learn how their forefathers lived. By seeing a slice of the past, an appreciation of today’s lifestyle can be realized. The founding Museum members opened the Museum in Goodells on July 16, 1966. To celebrate the Farm Museum, starting this Friday, August 24th through Sunday, August 26th the museum is hosting their annual Harvest Festival and take a step back in time to Yesteryear.
