The Mission
Silos & Smokestacks National Heritage Area preserves and tells the story of American
agriculture and its global significance.
The Challenge
In the Silos & Smokestacks region, the heritage of America’s agricultural revolution still exists but it needs preservation and interpretation. American agriculture is one of the primary sources of this country’s wealth and world leadership. Our challenge is to convey the breadth and scope of this story in a compelling, meaningful way.
