Really nice selection of retired equipment, now on display at the Plantation store museum. Plenty to keep one busy browsing all the old farm equipment.

Very nice large display at the plantation museum. There was 3 different "groups" in different locations, around the grounds. There was outdoor field equipment, tractors and then there was an area with other internal engine equipment that was under cover. All easily accessible, and FREE! Thats right. There is a donation box located inside the museum store, but free to browse the equipment and the museum store. There is also a free self driving tour of the Laurel Valley Plantation complex, which involves the houses the workers lived in. Highly recommended to visit.
