The Dairy (Bee Room)
A dairy farmer once lived here! Remodeled in 2001, this room has information on bees, birds, rocks, trees, and picture collages of Virginia Secor Stranahan. Check out the indoor Honey Bee hive! Watch as the bees collect pollen and feed the brood. Also, we have outdoor Honey Bee hives which certainly provide a good partnership for the gardens!
Cow Barn (Pottery Barn)
The old cow barn, where they once milked cows, has been converted into a Pottery Barn. A place where all ages can learn the art of making pots. Adult and youth pottery classes available. Experienced or not, give it a try!
Solar Thermal Panels
Two solar thermal panels are located on the south roof of the pottery barn. The sun shines, the panels filled with antifreeze heat up, and hot water is produced. The hot water is used in the pottery barn, courtyard bathroom and machinery room sinks.
