World's Largest Pair of Overalls

Give yourself the time to explore inside this building! Just beyond the overalls there is a large exhibit room where you can pose with a giant corn cob, oversized soybeans, have your weight told to you by a scale that measures in russet potatoes or bales of hay, a touch display about the science of the egg, and there is a simulation of working the fields as a farmer.

The entrance opposite the overalls has an oversized Scrabble game on the wall that makes a great photo op where you can spell out a message as well.
