The Mississippi Agricultural & Forestry Museum has a bold mission of creating a society that values the agricultural lifestyle and appreciates both agricultural practices and the people involved in them. They cultivate an appreciation for Mississippi's agriculture by displaying artifacts of this trade and providing educational resources.

The museum focuses on methods of transportation as they play important roles in the ways in which farmers and foresters transport their goods. Visitors can explore a variety of exhibits at the museum, including the main transportation sections of Water, Railroad, and Road.

Each transportation division explains the relationship it has with agriculture and forestry. If you have children, the carousel and the train ride will definitely appeal to them. There is something for everyone at the Mississippi Agricultural & Forestry Museum.
