Florida Agricultural Museum, Agricultural museum in Flagler County, United States.
The Florida Agricultural Museum is an agricultural museum in Flagler County featuring historical buildings, a dairy barn, and a preserved country store from different time periods. The site includes a restored pioneer homestead from the 1890s and structures from a 1930s citrus operation.
The museum was founded in 1983 to preserve buildings documenting Florida's agricultural history from the 1800s onward. The structures tell the story of pioneers and farmers who lived and worked in the region during those eras.
The museum displays the contributions of African and African American people to Florida's cattle ranching through exhibits and artifacts. Visitors can encounter these often-overlooked stories while exploring the different buildings and structures on the grounds.
Visitors can choose between guided tours including walks through historic buildings or hayride tours to see the animals. It helps to wear comfortable clothes and shoes since considerable ground is covered on foot.
The museum raises Florida Cracker cattle, one of the country's oldest cattle breeds that adapted to the region's hot and swampy climate. These uncommon animals offer a living window into early Florida ranching.
