Greetings from New Berlin
Our Society is developing an exhibit on the agricultural development of our
town, using in large part artifacts, pictures, and diaries collected from
the well known Cornfalfa Farms of New Berlin. As part of the display
focusing on alfalfa/hay production, we have a tentative plan to include a
hay machine, such as a hay loader. The picture attached shows a hay loader,
which transports hay from the windrow to the wagon, in operation on
Cornfalfa Farms.
I am asking if perhaps your group has, or knows of, a hay loader in storage
that the owner would like to loan, donate, or sell to be used in our
display. This exhibit will be housed in our old fire station, now the New
Berlin Historical Museum, on Prospect Hill.
I would also welcome any other suggestions or leads you might have should we
need to look further. We do, of course, hope to locate one within a
reasonable distance of Waukesha.
