Every kid growing up should have a barn. Guests may walk in and see farm equipment from the 19th century on display.
Wagons, plows, harrows, fanning mills, hay wagons, mowers, a real manure spreader and even smaller tools are on display. Some of the prevalent farming artifacts in the Barn have to do with corn cultivation, one of Ohio’s largest crops. A farmer had to prepare the soil using a plow or a harrow, plant the seeds using a planter, cultivate the crop with a cultivator, and harvest using the wagon, seed corn dryers, and corn crib. The corn ears must also be shelled using the corn sheller. Corn by-products like the stalks (chopped with a fodder chopper), cobs, and husks might also be used by farmers for animal bedding.
