Spring Cleaning Day on the Farm

Help us turn the farm upside down! Join us for Spring Cleaning Day, when every corner of the historic farm gets a fresh start for the growing season. Roll up your sleeves to help tidy the Kelley family home, then head outside to pitch in around the barns and yards.

As you work alongside staff, you’ll discover how 19th-century farm families prepared their houses, gardens, and fields for the busy months ahead. After helping clean, participate in a butter making demonstration and savor your hard work. It’s a hands-on day where you don’t just learn about spring on the farm, you help make it happen.

This event is free and open to the public and registration is not required, but attendees are encouraged to RSVP. Tickets are not required for admission.
