Stonefield Visitor Guide
|
Discover your agricultural heritage as you explore the four parts of Stonefield.
Explore farmers' and inventors' achievements — historic photographs, colorful advertising art, and farm implements and tractors, including rare examples.
1900 Farmstead
Step inside a progressive farmer's home and workplace — a re-creation based on a plan issued by the United States Department of Agriculture in 1901.
1900 Village
Browse the shops of a farmers' shopping center — a 30-building re-creation based on Wisconsin villages of a century ago that provided the farm family with access to goods, services, and social activities.
Explore a gentleman farmer's estate — historic structures that were part of an expansive late- 1800s farm and orchard. Associated with Wisconsin's first governor, Nelson Dewey, and originally designed in the Gothic Revival architectural style, the buildings are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. |
