The name doesn't do it justice... this museum is really a working farm and recreation of a typical NY town circa 1850, complete with original buildings harvested from all corners of the state. A General Store, Tavern, Church, Ironsmith, Apothecary, Broom Maker, Seamstress, etc. Check for any special events while you're in town, it's fun for the whole family!
