The Legacy of Agriculture

Come experience the legacy of Agriculture in the city of “The Far Country.” Join Museum Staff for this 1-hour guided tour of Moab’s Historic Business District. During this 1-mile guided experience, guests will have the opportunity to learn and explore the legacy of some of the men and women who helped establish and build-up the City of Moab, Utah through their investments in the community and their civic leadership. This guided tour, led by museum staff, focuses on Moab’s fascinating and seldom told, pre-uranium history, this tour experience delves into the agricultural history of Canyon Country, following the experiences of over a dozen men and women who made a go of it on Indian Creek, creating community, raising livestock and families, who would later help establish the City of Moab, using that same grit and love of community here.
