Experience life on an Early American farm through hands-on activities and exhibits at Historic Cold Spring Village’s ‘Down on the Farm’ Weekend, Saturday and Sunday August 4-5 from 10am-4:30pm. Historic Cold Spring Village, an open-air living history museum, presents the trades, crafts, architecture and lifestyles of an Early American, rural South Jersey farming community. The Village is also home to a working 8-acre heritage farm complex.
Special exhibits throughout the Village will include collections of antique and modern farming equipment and tools. Visitors can tour the historic Corson-Gandy Barn, c. 1880, which is now home to Levi the Village horse. Guests can visit the Village sheep, pigs, chickens and calves. The Family Activity Area will feature games, and take-home crafts. Children may also participate in farm chores at the Corson-Gandy Barn throughout the day. ‘Down on the Farm’ is generously sponsored by Smeltzer & Sons Feed & Pet Supplies.
The Friends of Historic Cold Spring Village will also host the 7th Annual Dog Show on Saturday from 10am-12pm.
