This event is part of our ongoing preparations for the America 250 celebration. As one of the oldest continuously operating grist mills in the United States, the Mill at Anselma predates the nation itself and may have supported its founding era.

Come hear how the Pickering Valley Railroad once connected our rural mill to a growing region—carrying goods, people, and stories that shaped local life for generations.

We look forward to welcoming you!
