About Georgia Museum of Agriculture & Historic Village
The Georgia Museum of Agriculture & Historic Village, formerly known as Agrirama, is a 19th-century living museum located in Tifton, Georgia. It opened on July 4, 1976. The grounds consist of five areas: a traditional farm community of the 1870s, an 1890s progressive farmstead, an industrial sites complex, rural town, national peanut complex, and the Museum of Agriculture Center.
Over 35 structures have been relocated to the 95-acre (380,000 m2) site and faithfully restored or preserved including the Vulcan Steam Train running on 3 ft (914 mm) narrow gauge track. Costumed interpreters explain and demonstrate the lifestyle and activities of this time in Georgia's history. It is located at 1392 Whiddon Mill Road off I-75 at Exit 63B.
The museum is a facility of Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College.
