The park was closed on December 21, in 2018, but we leave this here out of sentimentality.

Take a journey back to 1771 and experience what it was like to go to the market and catch up on the latest happenings outside of your farm. Smell the rosemary chicken and sausage cooking. Drink a beer from the tavern. Buy some kitchen wares at auction. Let your children paint, play games, watch the puppet show, make candles, and pester the man on the lathe making wooden rings. You work hard every day from sunup until sundown. Enjoy this day.
