From blacksmithing and hay bailing to washing and butter churning, various historic farm and household displays will be on show.
President of the Merrigum Historical Society Bryan Fitzsimmons said the small committee works hard to provide an excellent range of displays.
“There's fun for everybody,” Mr Fitzsimmons said.
“There will be raffles, face painting, a coffee van and a BBQ lunch available.
“A new attraction this year, is a gentleman who's demonstrating how to make a stock whip,” he said.
Another feature will be Australia’s first accredited female cricket bat maker Clare Johnston’s display on handcrafting cricket bats.
Clare Johnston is a pioneer female cricket bat maker.
Visitors can also see wood turning, leather making, lace making, darning, and examples of quilting, crochet and calligraphy.
Vintage engines will be in action, alongside a wide range of exhibits and collectables.
Children can try traditional kids’ games, and have their faces painted.
Although the focus will be on operating displays, the museum’s collection will also be open.
Mr Fitzsimmons said the main exhibit at the museum features artefacts from local churches that have closed in the last few years.
Tickets are $10 for adults and $2 for children, with plants and seedlings, baked goods and freshly churned butter available for purchase on the day.
