Ed Larson’s Collection of Agricultural Antiques

Free Admission – $10 Suggested Donation

All proceeds benefit the Evansville Grove Society, Inc

Grandpa’s Farm occupies the headquarters building at Larson’s Acres, one of the largest dairy farms in Rock County. It houses a remarkable collection of farm tools, kitchen gadgets, and other relics that Ed Larson has collected over the years. On the third floor are hundreds of antique milk bottles from across Wisconsin, each labeled with the dairy’s name and alphabetized by town. In the basement are milking machines, butter churns, grinders, cutters, and countless other artifacts of farm life over the last two centuries. It is a collection you do not want to miss!
