about Oliver Kelley Farm:

When visitors step onto this working 1850s farm, they can pick heirloom vegetables from the garden, chat with the farmhands, check in on the animals in the barn, churn butter, make straw hats and soap, and see what's cooking in the farmhouse.

Costumed guides work the fields with oxen and horses, and the gardens and fields are filled with many of the same plants the Kelley farm grew over 140 years ago. The harvest is run the same way, too, with horse-powered threshing, haymaking, and other harvest activities.
