Enjoy a guided tour of the house including its notorious jail cells! Learn about daily life on the farm and try your hand at spinning wool. Then take a walk along the Connecticut River with River Steward, Ashley Lively of <a href="https://www.ctriver.org/staff/amber-lively" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Connecticut River Conservancy.</a>&nbsp; Visitors will explore the area’s shipbuilding history and changing ecology. You will even have a chance to test your rope tying skills.
After a hard day’s work, relax outdoors with a modern cheese plate and a tavern tidbit created by <a href="https://www.frontporchcharcuterie.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Front Porch Charcuterie,</a> followed by an informal Q&amp;A with our experts.
This event takes place on Sunday, October 4, 2026, from 1-4 pm and is a very special opportunity to tour a historic, privately owned property.&nbsp;(The last time the house was open to the public was 2016 for a fundraising dinner.)
