Our Mission Statement

The Wilson County Old Iron Club is dedicated to the preservation of our agricultural heritage through education for all ages.  Restoration of early equipment, machinery and “Old Iron” used for functional active demonstrations and displays re-creates rural life of yesteryear.  Club activities will prevent the loss of historic knowledge and skills, allowing today’s and future generations to understand and appreciate the roots our society is based upon, for the betterment and benefit of our community.
