The museum is celebrating the opening of the newest exhibition, Tomatoes, The California Story, at 6 p.m. June 11 with a member-only reception. Not a member? Not a problem. Become a member at www.aghistory.org/membership and see the full list of benefits which members receive throughout the year. The annual member reception is to thank all members for their generous contributions, involvement and support. The center is also unveiling two of the earliest mechanical tomato harvesters and a turn of the century tomato transplanter. In addition, the center will be spotlighting modern tomato machinery and featuring celebrity docents who will provide tours of the exhibit. Tomatoes are an essential part of summer in Northern California, as the smell, sights, taste and sounds of late summer become dominated by the tomato harvest. Our member reception promises tomato-themed fun with a taco bar, bloody mary bar, dessert bar, wine tasting and music in the museum's courtyard. A festive evening of fun is awaiting our members. We encourage you to become a member and see all that the museum has to offer. The event will be at the Heidrick Ag History Center, 1962 Hays Lane in Woodland. It is free to members.
