Admission & Events

The Ferndale Museum is non-profit and we keep our admissions low. In fact, we have not raised admissions since opening in the late 1970s! We want everyone to enjoy peeking into the past.

2008 - FERNDALE MUSEUM COOKBOOK

The Museum's Cookbook has been reprinted. It is now available in the Museum Gift shop for $19.95 plus tax or you may send a check for $26.50 per book and we will mail a copy to you. Postage and tax is included in the $26.50.

This cookbook has many GREAT, YUMMY, STUPENDOUS recipes from local folk. Many people had requested a reprinting because they wanted to replace their copy or send one to a friend or relative. 212 pages not counting the index. Spiral bound so it will lay flat when you are using it. Easy wipe front and back covers so you can keep it clean. Many amusing quips about the locals interspersed along with artist renderings.
