INVITATION TO THE CHAGNON COLLECTION MUSEUM
Centre Agricole invites you to discover the Chagnon Collection Museum during a special day that will take you back to the agricultural world of the 1950s.
This impressive collection brings together more than 80 International Harvester tractors, along with IH trucks and various period agricultural equipment. Many of these pieces come from Western Canada, others from the southern United States, while the one that traveled the greatest distance was acquired in France.
Originally built with passion by our founder, Raymond Chagnon, this collection was acquired by Centre Agricole in 2022 to ensure its preservation and showcase its value. Today, it is recognized as one of the most significant collections of International Harvester machinery in North America. Thanks to restoration work carried out over the years, these machines highlight the evolution of agriculture and represent a true heritage treasure for the Coaticook region.
