Tickets on sale January 30     

Join us at Heritage Farmstead Museum for one of our Spring Homeschool Days. Come learn about what life would have been like for an early settler moving out, building up and living on a farmstead.

 

  • Meet local demonstrators and find out what important craft or skill was needed to settle a farmstead.
  • Try your hand at farm chores including washing laundry, plowing a field, feeding the chickens, and milking Buttermilk the Cow (our mechanical milking machine).
  • Meet the farm animals: pigs, goats, sheep, ducks, turkeys, and Poncho the donkey!
  • Take a peek inside the historic, 1891 Wilson House!
  • Ride the wagon around the 4-acre farm!

Activities open from 10am-12pm. Farm open until 1pm. Bring a lunch and enjoy a picnic on the farm!
