Hale Farm and Village

Hale Farm and Village spans 140 acres with fields, gardens, woods, and a three-story red brick house at the edge of Cuyahoga Valley National Park.

Jonathan Hale established the farm in 1810 after moving from Connecticut to the Western Reserve, constructing the main brick house in 1825.

The museum demonstrates nineteenth-century trades including candle making, broom making, brick making, glass blowing, and blacksmithing through skilled artisans.

The eastern section operates as Wheatfield Village, where staff members provide information about historical buildings relocated from different areas of Ohio.

Each year, interpreters at Wheatfield progress through time from 1861 to 1865, covering the Civil War period before starting the cycle again.
