This park is one of my favorites! I love seeing all the farm animals. Recently went and went on a tour around the house which was amazing. Our tour guide was Sandy and she was such a nice lady and gave us so many interesting facts and stories about the history of the house. 10/10 experience :)

Spend an hour checking out things and walking around particularly the hiking paths. Great exercise. Very relaxing environment. Beautiful park.

You have living history. Then you have Meadow Farm. You think you are on a tour, but you actually go back in time and live out what the people lived back in the day.

Meadow Farm Museum is a circa 1860 living history farm site and museum. The site consists of a farm house, a blacksmith forge, and an orientation center. The staff presents programs and exhibits on the culture of the rural South. Costumed interpreters provide insight into the lives of the Sheppard family, owners of the farm. On selected weekends, they demonstrate activities in the farmhouse, barn, doctor’s office, blacksmith forge, kitchen, fields, and pastures. There are sheep, chickens, a turkey, hogs, cows, horses, and goats on the farm. I visited the museum on a weekday. There were two school bus loads of children touring the farm and feeding the farm animals. I was fortunate enough to get a one-on-one tour of the farm house with Ken, one of the docents. Ken was obviously well-versed on the history of the house but also on the customs of the period. We engaged in very pleasant conversation as we moved from room to room. It was a wonderful experience! My thanks to him for making my visit memorable. Meadow Farm Museum is a part of Crump Park. The park has playgrounds, picnic shelters, trails, large open fields, and a fishing pond. Grounds are open daily from dawn to dusk. The farmhouse, outbuildings, and orientation center are open from March-November on Tuesday-Sunday from noon to 4:00 pm and from December to February on Saturday and Sunday from noon to 4:00 pm. It is closed the first two weeks of January. There is plenty of automobile and bus parking. Come out, bring the family, and have a wonderful time.

We took our 16 month old grandson here quite a few times. The playground is filled with many different areas to explore and have fun. There are lots of shaded picnic tables to enjoy your lunch as well. In the farm area we found donkeys, chickens, pigs, cows sheep and new born lambs that were all fun to watch. This is a great place to take your time, enjoy the beautiful grounds and the guides are very friendly and informative. You don't want to miss this gem and consider yourself lucky if you live nearby.
