A part of the farm has been dedicated to the creation of The Museum of Western Reserve Farms and Equipment. Our goal is to establish a working village during the 1820’s to 1920’s, equipped with every shop and trade common to a small town. We are saving and preserving many historic buildings that would have otherwise been forever lost. And we are recording the stories of many of the old farming families of the Western Reserve.
The Museum is so far comprised of a collection of 40+ historic buildings moved here from 6 northern Ohio counties, with more added each year. These buildings are arranged as a ‘Western Reserve’ style town, that includes a one room school, a General Store, a post office dating to 1825, a cigar factory, windmills, old time water pumps & troughs, one of the oldest barns in Ohio, and a bakery. Many other buildings have been restored to their original use and purpose with each building open for touring. They each contain a variety of tools, equipment, and rare, non-electric antiques. The shops include blacksmithing, harness & boot making shop, weaving mill, sawmill, barrel making, tin shop, a letterpress print shop, broom making, threshing mill, rope making, wood shop, and much more.
