Jan Mabee’s Twilight Tour

Each twilight at Mabee Farm brings a different array of lights and colors, as the warmth of the sunset transforms into deep blue, moon-lit skies. Join us as we explore Mabee Farm as it’s meant to be explored; awash in changing colors, the wind gusting outside, and the flickering lights of the Mabee house keeping us cozy and warm. A costumed Jan Mabee from the early 1700s will lead us through the house, delving into the histories and mysteries of the Mabee Farm, and giving us a taste of what life was like for settlers living on the edge of the wilderness. Tours are at 4:30pm.

$10.00
