Agricultural Equipment

Agriculture is the economic backbone of the Yakima Valley, and the Museum’s collection of 243 objects shows the industry's history.

Artifacts include a Lindeman BO crawler, apple-picking bags, Wenatchee Heads (a form for building apple boxes) and Nail Strippers (a device that organized the nails so the box-maker could build a box fast), lidding machines that bowed the lid of a box so as not to bruise the fruit during shipment, apple packing stands and apple labels.
