History

Living-history farm museum depicting late-18th-century Rhode Island agriculture — covers colonial-era farming, animal husbandry, and pre-industrial domestic skills.

What families say
This small 1790s living-history farm within Colt State Park is a hit with young kids, especially ages 5-8, offering costumed staff, farm animals, gardens, and hands-on seasonal events like maple sugaring or Pilgrim Thanksgiving. Most families plan on about 1.5 hours, and staff are consistently praised as friendly and knowledgeable. One reviewer had a rough visit due to poor signage and bad weather on a nonrefundable-ticket day, so it's worth checking the website beforehand and having a backup plan for parking and conditions.
