BrooksThe Brooks and District Museum
We are situated on 7 acres within the City of Brooks. The 19 historical buildings, 23 antique tractors, and close to 70 outdoor farming and oil & gas implements perfectly encapsulate the area’s unique spirit. Our displays pay tribute to farming & ranching, the CPR and EID, as well as the North-West Mounted Police and John Ware. Enjoy a self-guided tour through this hidden gem.
Open Farm Day activities will include:
- a parade of the antique tractors around the museum grounds
- a look into the farming life of early settlers to the area with local farmers sharing the history of one of the first pivots used in the area, and how it changed the landscape of farming
