The Grain Academy Museum offers tours to anyone who has an interest in gaining a bird's eye view of the grain handling system, storage and transportation industries.
Besides giving people the facts about how much and what kind of grains are grown in Canada, visitors learn that some 90 nations buy grain from Canada, and they get to see an array of products derived from grain.
The Grain Academy operates solely on donations from interested parties, sponsors and visitors, and has been open since 1981.
Guests can watch a video on "The Way it Was" depicting how the prairies were settled, see the working grain elevator demonstration and watch the sizable model train on the movement of grain from the prairie to the terminals at Vancouver.
Other displays include everything from barbed wire to wheat straw weaving, pioneer farm tools and various models of farm implements.
