About Weed Lumber Town Museum

The museum holds objects and pictures about the people who started and lived in Weed. Items from the former lumber company store and company hospital are on view. Some rooms are furnished to suggest an early 1900s home, and another room covers local policing with a jail area. Visitors can also see logging tools and rail equipment used at the mill yards. The site notes that the museum is closed for the current season and will reopen for tours on May 29, 2027.
