Hanford Mills Museum – A Piece of History in East Meredith, NY

Join us for Dairy at the Mill on July 19!

Discover the beauty of the site and power of the mill on tours offered four times a day, Wednesday through Sunday. See sawdust fly and feel the site come to life during demonstrations of the mill’s water wheel and historic machinery and explore the rest of the historic site. Take part in hands-on opportunities connecting water, sustainability, and the environment and witness the effects of technological innovation, creative decision-making, and resource management.

Experience a story of innovation, ingenuity and entrepreneurship at a historic working mill site. Sheltered in a valley in the northwestern Catskills of New York, Hanford Mills Museum offers insights into the past and lessons about the relationships between people, the things they make, and the places they live.
