About the Exhibit
In the outdoor exhibit, “Transforming the Land,” with new interactive signage thanks to generous support from Museum members, visitors will see a sulfur drying shed, trays for drying apricots, our newly gifted Blenheim apricot tree, as well as a rebuilt tractor similar to the one that Mr. Smith used in his acres of apricot orchards. Within this area is the refurbished 1915 tank house, a three-hole outhouse, antique farm equipment, and the first Wizard Walnut Huller built long ago by the Los Altos Formway Machine Shop, a manufacturing firm once located on Almond Avenue.
