WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY

WOW! What an awesome experience! At our May monthly meeting, more than 65 members and spouses enjoyed visiting one of the most impressive tractor collections known at FARMALL-LAND-USA in Avoca, IA. Most everyone came away marveling at not only the size of the 150 IH full-size tractor collection but all the other items which Jerry and Joyce Mez have collected and now exhibit in their 27,000 square foot buildings just off Interstate I-80 in the Mez's long-time hometown.

Excellent display! It's nice to know someone is restoring the IH tradition. I can relate to a lot of the older tractors my grandpa and dad had (and still have). Will look forward to coming back and seeing any "new" additions" to your collection. Thanks for the memories.

I wish my grandfather and great-grandfather were still alive. Viewing your tractors would have been Heaven for two old farmers. Your efforts are beyond museum quality. Well done.

The First and the Last

Cherish Yesterday - Dream of Tomorrow - Live Today

Farmall-Land-USA is a 26,500 square foot museum which houses Jerry's incredible collection of more than 150 IH full-size tractors, pedal tractors, toy tractors, artist's prints, and other IH memorabilia. The impressive collection represents a lifetime of collecting by Jerry Mez.

The museum is well-lit, climate-controlled, and handicap accesible. Allow plenty of time because the collection is extensive and each tractor is accompanied by informational material highlighting its history, uses, and unique characteristics.

When you need a rest, relax in the "Tractor Widows Lounge" and take in an equally impressive doll collection amassed by Joyce Mez.

If there's a "red" fan in your family, stop by our gift shop for Farmall-inspired gifts, T-shirts, and toys.

On display for a second season are two rare tractors in the Farmall collection. The first Farmall Regular (serial #QC503) sold to the public on March 1, 1924, and the last Farmall (5488, serial #4452) to come off the line at the Farmall plant in East Moline, IL, on May 14, 1985.
