Step back in time at this authentic 19th-century gristmill where kids can watch massive wooden gears turn and see corn ground into meal just like it was 200 years ago. The hands-on demonstrations and interactive tours bring history to life in a way that captivates young learners, while the working general store lets families take home freshly milled products.
