Description
Park rangers and volunteers in pioneer clothing demonstrate farm life at the re-created homestead. It is located on four of the original 160 acres owned by Thomas Lincoln from 1816-30. A cabin and outbuildings from the 1800s were moved from elsewhere in Indiana and reassembled here. There are split-rail fences, livestock, vegetable and herb gardens, and crop fields.
