Package B: This tour is usually divided into three parts. First, the entire group tours the house (if the group is large, this tour may be divided into stages, as noted above). Second, the group is divided into two or more groups, one of which tours the orchard, the bakeoven and smokehouse, the blacksmith shop, and the main exhibit building, “Faith & Furrow”, while the other plays colonial-era games. Third, after about a quarter of an hour, the groups switch. Total time for your visit to the Museum, including “rest stop” at the visitors center and off-loading and on-loading busses or vans: about one hour and thirty-five minutes.

Fee for Package B: $3.00 per student; adult chaperones up to a ratio of  1 chaperone per 8 students are free (beyond the ratio of 1:8 adults are charged $4.00 each).
