Contains exhibits depicting all aspects of milk production and processing from the early 20th century to the present.

This 10,000 square foot facility is a typical dairy-farm style building featuring a five-story silo that houses a conference room. One of our main exhibits is a series of historical vignettes that show the life of a dairy farm family before electricity came to rural America.

At the Southwest Dairy Museum, docents offer scheduled guided tours and can answer questions about the milk and the dairy industry.

With scheduled tours, visitors, including school children and tourists, can participate in demonstrations such as separating cream, which is the first step in the production of most dairy products. Another experience for visitors is the making of dairy products into butter, cheese, whipped cream or ice cream.
