This celebration also features live music by Santa Paula’s favorite rock and roll band the Cruise Knights, food trucks, and many free activities for children, including a petting zoo from the Aloha Animal Experience, face painting by Fancy Pantz, and old-fashioned games, such as pedal tractor races, potato sack races and the egg toss.

Inside the Museum, visitors can view exhibits about agriculture in our air-conditioned historic building. Current exhibits are AG Air: Aviation in Agriculture, The Dirt on Tractors, which portrays the evolution of the modern tractor, and paintings by local artist Whitney Brooks Abbott. Kids can climb on a real Oliver tractor and visit the Museum’s active beehive. See if you can spot the Queen bee! For more information, call (805) 653-0323 x 303 |
