Step into a piece of New Zealand's rich agricultural heritage at the Foxton Flax Stripper Museum, nestled in the heart of Manawatu-Wanganui. Established in 1990, we invite you to embark on a journey through time, exploring the fascinating world of flax processing and its pivotal role in our country's past. Our museum is not just a collection of relics; it's a vibrant tapestry of stories, skills, and shared experiences that breathe life into the era of flax milling. From the moment you step onto our grounds, you are enveloped by the unique aroma of freshly cut flax - a scent as much a part of our history as the machines we showcase here. We offer more than just tours; we provide immersive experiences that engage and educate. Witness the mighty flax stripping and scutching machine demonstrations, marvel at the intricate tools used by our forebears, and gain a deeper understanding of how this versatile plant shaped our region's economy and culture. But our offerings extend beyond mere spectacle. We offer classes for those eager to learn traditional flax crafting techniques, from weaving baskets to creating beautiful New Zealand flax art. For the more adventurous, our activities calendar is brimming with exciting events that promise entertainment and enlightenment in equal measure. At Foxton Flax Stripper Museum, we are more than a museum or gallery; we are a living testament to our past, a platform for creativity, and a beacon of knowledge and passion for all things flax. So come, immerse yourself in the sights, sounds, and stories that make us unique, and discover why Foxton Flax Stripper Museum is more than just a museum - it's a journey through time, a celebration of craftsmanship, and a tribute to our proud heritage.
