Kirby Family Farm

Helping children stay on track, or get back on track in life.

*This Page is currently under Construction!* 

Over 3,000 children participated in our outreach programs and events last year at no cost!

 

Recognized as a living museum, our historic collection is shared for the children to not only enjoy and learn about the pieces themselves, but also they are used as examples of how with love and care things can be restored, or saved from destruction, including children. Our collection currently includes 5 locomotives and 6 open air passenger cars.
