We're glad you found the Pine-Strawberry Archaeological and Historical Society. We work to protect the history and culture of Pine, Strawberry, and the places around them. We are located in Pine, Arizona, under the beautiful Mogollon Rim. Our goal since the beginning of 1979 has been to gather, keep, and share the stories of our community, from the time of the first Native American groups to the time of the early settlers who changed the area.

Many items and displays in our museum show how strong and creative the people who lived before us were. Visitors of all ages can bring the past to life through interesting events, hands-on displays, and well-written books.

You will always find something new when you visit the Strawberry Schoolhouse, walk along the historical trails, or examine the fossils and pioneer artifacts in our exhibits. We want you to travel through time and connect with Pine-Strawberry's spirit.

Our website, which connects the past and present, explains Pine-Strawberry, Arizona's past and culture. It is meant to help you navigate our many tools and experiences. The Pine-Strawberry Museum can be viewed virtually, and the site also provides information about future events and ways to volunteer.
