TOURS

Pick up a brochure and enjoy a self-guided walking tour of the authentic working farm. The homestead consists of 18 buildings, including the family farmhouse with original furnishings, a 1880's kitchen outbuilding, a general store, post office, and a functional cane syrup complex. See costumed interpreters working the farm in the lifestyle of the 1880's to 1940's as they perform daily chores, work the crops, and tend to livestock.

Guided-tours: School groups and organizations must make reservations for tours one month in advance. Groups are limited to 40 people. Please call the park office at 352-472-1142 for group tour guidelines and information.
