Cross Farms was great, much more to it than we thought. Worth an afternoon to check it out. Can't wait for the farmers market there this summer!

As far as Museums go, this is not a highly curated experience. If informational signage is something you require, you will probably be disappointed with a good deal of this facility. That said, there are some informational plaques, and the grounds and buildings are positively full of interesting equipment and artifacts from a bygone era. I had a great time just touring around and visually examining everything, especially the extensive collection of antique farming equipment. Definitely worth a visit, but it would be nice if they could get the funding to spruce up some of the exhibits, and get all of those cool old tractors out of the elements and into a proper building.

As far as museums go it is small, but it is packed with great historical information. Grand Junction is an interesting area and this museum is filled with exhibits. The staff here is also amazing. On a whim my wife asked a research upstairs if she happened to know if she could find any information on her family - it turned out the researcher had land deeds and even more that once belonged to my wife's great grandparents. If you are a resident here this place is a must see. Its kid friendly, and has a small gift shop as well.

We thought this place was wonderful. The staff was great, friendly, knowledgeable. All volunteers in period dress. You can go through at your pace. Look at antiques and explore the buildings and talk to the staff. You can breeze it all in an hour but could linger for 3 or more.

The model trains are very detailed but you can't see much of them. It's a nice old time experience just not very big.
