Center for Antique Machinery

The Center for Antique Machinery, or CAM for short, was built in 2023 by the Friends of Schumacher Farm Park through donations from the Waunakee community and the Madison area. It houses the antique machinery that was stored off-site or in other buildings on the farm and will allow us to rotate machinery for display in the attached lean-to thus opening up space in other areas for educational programs and events. Some of the early 1900s machinery housed in this 5,920 square foot building are the Rumely tractor, threshing machine, hay loader, potato digger, bean thresher and hay baler.
