The Oregon Trail Agricultural Museum was formerly a farmer's feed, seed and mill business built in the late 1930s. Highlighted are displays of early farm and ranch equipment depicting the rich agricultural heritage of the Nyssa area, including restored sheep wagons. There are historical photographs of Nyssa and Adrian and nearby areas, and Oregon Trail history. A gift shop with local crafts is located in the museum.
