We need you to help us continue our program and services at the Museum and Educational Center.

Funding from the County and the generosity of our Patrons only goes so far in providing  all the resources necessary to allow the quality of events and programs that we wish to provide.  For the rest we rely on volunteers - like you.

We need people with a variety of skills and talents.  If you can help please reach out to the Museum Director.

Ward W. O’Hara "The Story Teller"


Author of 15 books and a columnist for the local newspaper for more than 11 years Ward became interested in collecting farm equipment in the mid-1900s. His wife, Ruth, joined right in and their collection grew beyond their ability to house it all. They saw the 4-H Pavillion at Emerson Park standing idle and approached the Cayuga County Legislature for permission to make it a Country Museum, which they did in May of 1975. In May 1977 the Legislature renamed the museum the Ward W. O’Hara Agricultural Museum in his honor. One September 8, 1997 Ward passed away leaving behind a legacy that will benefit us all for many years to come.
