Began as a personal collection of historic agricultural implements by Everett and Hazel Zimmerman, Alta Vista's Ag Heritage Park offers a view into the history of the Great Plains through artifacts and historic structures like barns and a one-room schoolhouse. Visitors to this museum will also be treated with personalized stories by these two local history lovers. Highlights of the collection include threshers, tractors, and early combines, as well as artifacts that filled the homes of early farm families.
