Colonial Virginia homestead |
6310 Georgetown Pike Washington DC, VA 22101 +1 703 442 7557 http://www.1771.org/ |
An easy walking path leads visitors from the parking lot through wheat and corn fields and an orchard to an 18th-century farm house. The house was typical of a poor Virginia tenant farmer in the 1770s. Volunteers work the farm and do other household chores while keeping in character in dress and speech. Children will especially enjoy the farm animals, which include cattle, turkeys, hogs, chickens, dogs and cats. Throughout the year, special events are held to demonstrate old methods of cheese making, flax processing and other ways of life. Admission: $2 adults, $1 children 3-12 and senior citizens.
