Tuckahoe Steam and Gas Assoc. Is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, all-volunteer organization founded in 1973, located on Maryland's Eastern Shore. Our mission is to help preserve the historical Eastern Shore rural heritage. On our 60 acre campus we have over a dozen buildings including 5 museums open to the public, and a showground where we conduct various events each year, including our premier Annual Steam Show (44 years running) which attracts up to 15,000 visitors each year. We have a large collection of vintage machinery and equipment restored to museum condition. Our goal is to not only display the equipment, but to operate it during shows and events. This keeps the equipment from getting lost to history, and motivates the younger generations to participate, allowing them to learn the skills and crafts of their ancestors. Farming techniques and skills that previously supported the rural communities are handed down to future generations.
