The American Work Horse Museum Colleciton is largely composed of equine agricultural materials from the collection of Dr. and Mrs. Buckardt. The Buckardts donated their workhorse artifacts to the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences at Virginia Tech.

In addition to farming machinary and photographs still located at the museum in Lexington, the collection also contains newsletters from 1971 to 1981 featuring information on museum activities.

Other materials include an 1918 Army machine gun handbook, information on work horse teams, and a small collection of museum-related photographs.
