The ECHS Museum is open today, Sunday, May 31, from noon to 2 p.m. Bill Landers and Bill Mitchell will be on hand to help visitors and answer questions. Both are farmers with deep knowledge of Earlville’s agricultural history. It’s a great opportunity to learn about the area’s early farmland and farm services.
The Agricultural Shed features many of Earlville’s agriculture-related businesses, including veterinarians, cold storage lockers, truckers, and more. If you haven’t visited this area yet, it’s a must-see for a glimpse of Earlville’s past.
