BLISSFIELD, Mich. -- Plans are in the works for an agricultural museum in Michigan that would include a collection of 6,000 farm toys as well as displays on the history of agriculture and agriculture technology.
The Daily Telegram of Adrian reports (http://bit.ly/1hXaWoC ) that Rhode Island-based architect Friedrich St. Florian, who designed the World War II Memorial in Washington, D.C., last week showed a design concept for the Agricultural Awareness and Preservation Museum.
The museum would be built in Blissfield, about 55 miles southwest of Detroit.
Melissa Growden, marketing coordinator and secretary of the museum's board, says the heart of the museum will farm the toys. The museum board looked at a number of different possible sites, but decided on Blissfield because of its rich agricultural heritage.
