Preserving the history of farm life

The New Hampshire Farm Museum consists of two adjoining farmsteads situated on 50 acres on Plummer’s Ridge in Milton, New Hampshire. In addition to our collection of historic buildings and barns, agricultural exhibits, displays, and collections, we are also a working farm, keeping a selection of heritage breed farm animals and a variety of gardens on the property.

We are dedicated to preserving, promoting, and carrying forward New Hampshire’s agricultural heritage while sharing the authentic beauty of rural farm life. Special events and programs, workshops, school group visits, and day camps are offered throughout the year. Come spend a day with us!
