The barn at Adaland was constructed about 1850 by the son of the original settler of the land. It is of post and beam construction with native yellow poplar and other hardwoods used in the interior. Rafters were attached to the 8 inch x 8 inch beams by cutting a slot and inserting the rafter which was then fastened with wooden pegs. The barn has been restored and houses a display of early farm tools dating from about 1881. Tours are held on weekends or by request.

Heritage Center Arts, music and demonstrations of crafts are held on a regular weekend schedule and a Heritage Days festival is held each year. Spinning and weaving are demonstrated. Crafts include quilts, wall hangings, handmade baskets, hand blown glass balls, wood carvings, caned chairs and stools.

Gift Shop Heritage crafts are on sale in the Adaland gift shop. Other items include old pressed glass, locally made jellies, home town collectibles, handmade sewn purses, and tea napkins.
