Humanities Kansas recently awarded $9,985 to the McPherson County Old Mill Museum in support of ‘Not the Same Old Grind: Mills & Milling in McPherson County’ a new permanent exhibit exploring the milling industry in the county from past to present. Lorna Nelson serves as project director. “We are excited to add a new permanent exhibit that showcases both artifacts and archival material to tell the evolving story of milling and its impact in our county,” she said. “In addition to explaining more of our county’s story, it will help visitors better understand the historic mill on site. We hope the new exhibit will provoke thoughts/conversation about change over time in our rural way of life, our industries, our food production, and even our food consumption.”
