JOIN THE FIGHT TO KEEP TRACTOR HISTORY ALIVE!!

The Froelich Foundation, a nonprofit organization established in 1986, has set a goal of preserving the heritage of this village. It was once a thriving community that boasted of a depot, sawmill, blacksmith shop, a creamery, a post office (still in the general store), a hatchery, stockyards, ice house, barber shop, shipping warehouse and church.

Each year members of the foundation and many volunteers hold various events to give people a chance to remember the history of The Froelich Tractor. Your donations and memberships go directly to preserving these fragile American Heritage structures and knowledge.

You can make a difference!
