Dudley Farm Historic State Park, Heritage farm park in Newberry, United States.
Dudley Farm Historic State Park is a restored agricultural estate in Florida with a farmhouse, barns, and support buildings from the 1800s and early 1900s. The grounds display period buildings, farming equipment, and gardens that show how people managed crops and livestock during that era.
The farm was established in 1852 by the Dudley family and remained in operation through three generations before becoming a state park. This long period of continuous use made it a record of Florida farming across nearly a century of change.
The property shows how farming families lived and worked together to sustain themselves through the land. You can see the spaces where generations managed crops and livestock as a way of life, not just for profit.
The park is open only on certain days and offers guided tours where visitors walk through the buildings and grounds. Wear sturdy shoes since you will walk between buildings on paths and may encounter uneven ground in places.
The site still grows crops using early 1900s methods and keeps original farming tools and family possessions that span generations. This active farming approach makes it feel like a working property rather than just a museum display.
