You can visit 40 original buildings, and explore homes, meetinghouses, a district school, country store, bank, working farm, three water-powered mills, and trade shops – all situated on more than 200 scenic acres.

We visited with authentically costumed historians and watched demonstrations in the tin shop, printing press and cider making.
