New Hampshire Farm Museum

The New Hampshire Farm Museum spans 50 acres with historic farmsteads, barns, gardens, and walking paths on Plummer's Ridge. The property includes a farmhouse from the late 1700s and a 104-foot-long three-story barn from the mid-1800s, along with displays of agricultural machinery.

The property originated from Albert Poore's bequest, a prominent farmer of the 1800s whose family cultivated the land across several generations. Over time it was converted into a museum to preserve this traditional way of life for future generations.

The museum displays heritage farm animals and demonstrates traditional farming techniques through hands-on activities and educational programs that visitors can experience directly. These live demonstrations help people understand the practical skills that earlier generations relied on.

The site is easy to explore on foot, with walking paths and marked routes throughout the grounds. The visitor center and Country Store provide orientation and information when you arrive.

An octagonal wooden mill called the York Cider Mill demonstrates the old way apples were processed, something many visitors overlook. This is one of the few places where you can see these specialized techniques in action.
