4th on the Farm

Gather your friends and family for a fun-filled July 4th on the Farm at Billings Farm & Museum. Celebrate with horse-drawn wagon rides, ice cream-making, live music, historic “base ball”, and more from 10:00AM – 5:00PM.

At 2:00PM, step back in time for a friendly, action-packed game of historic “base ball,” played by 1860 rules, complete with wood shaving baselines, straw-stuffed canvas bases, ash bat reproductions, and barehanded play. Join the game or cheer from the bleachers!

Take a stroll through the Farmstead Gardens, which feature a Victory Garden, a WWII-era initiative to promote home gardening so food processing plants could be repurposed for the war efforts.Enjoy Vermont-made ice cream and snacks at the Farmhouse Scoop Shop, available for purchase.

Members enjoy free admission to this event and all year long!
