Open Wednesday through Saturday, 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.

Enjoy learning about the lifestyle and activities of a farm family during the early 1900’s, under the guidance of a museum director who grew up on a tobacco farm. Exhibits illustrate the production of tobacco from seed to market, including methods of planting, handling, curing and selling. Explore the farm home from the kitchen to the bedroom, enjoy a trip to the general store and visit a country church and one room schoolhouse too. You can even see an authentic hand cut log barn and strip room with farm implements under the shed and in the barnyard.

Directions:
Take exit 12 from I-85 and go northwest on US-58 (E Atlantic St) for .9 miles. Turn left onto Dortch Ln, then immediately turn right onto E. Main St.
