The Murray County Historical Society and Slayton Public Library invites the public to attend the March Lunchbox Lecture Thursday, March 12th, 2026, in the 4-H building on the Murray County Fairgrounds in Slayton starting at noon. This month’s lecture will feature Jay Grammond on "Ghost Signs &amp; Grain Bins: A Look At Minnesota's Farming Heritage"
Step into the fading paint and rusted  tin of Minnesota's agricultural past in this visually rich and story-filled presentation. Ghost Signs &amp; Grain Bins uncovers the once-bold advertisements that graced barns, brick walls, silos, and grain bins - remnants of a time when agricultural branding was as rooted in the land as the crops it helped grow. We'll explore historic Minnesota farms, honor a few trailblazing ag pioneers, and journey through the state's most iconic grain elevators and farmstead bins. Whether you walked these fields or grew up near a co-op, this talk promises a nostalgic look back at the signs, symbols, and stories that shaped Minnesota's rural landscape. 
As the program is a collaboration with the local public library, this lecture will be free for the public, regardless of MCHS membership status. Attendees are welcome to bring their own lunch. Refreshments and light snacks are provided. For more information about this and other museum events, call 507-836-6533 or email museum@murraycountymn.gov.
