ABOUT
US
Welcome to the
Howard County Antique Farm Machinery Club's web site. Our club has
been in existence since 1995. We currently have over 200 members
who support a number of annual club events that can be viewed from
this site.
Howard County is a 253 square mile community located
in Central Maryland. We have a population of approximately 250,000.
We are in a geographical setting that ranges from urban neighborhoods
to rolling hills and rural farmland. Located between the cities
of Baltimore and Washington, D.C., Howard County is subject to the
demands posed by rapid growth and development.
The mission of the Howard County Farm Machinery Club is to preserve
our agricultural way of life through programs that offer presentations
and displays designed so those participating can experience the
way of life in historical Howard County. Our programs are both educational
and informative that combines learning with a wholesome family environment.
We partner with numerous organizations, many of which can be reached
through links from our web site.
We are currently working on the construction of the "Living
Farm Heritage Museum" in Howard County. During the ongoing
construction, the Museum has a number of scheduled events that are
open to the public. These programs are a perfect opportunity for
visitors to experience the many facets of historical farm life, as
well as, see the museum structures and displays come to life during
construction. Check out the Calendar of Events link at left.
We are always looking for new members.
We are a non-profit organization and accept monetary donations as
well as antique items that can be placed on display as part of our
museum efforts. Click
