Steppingstone Farm Museum

Steppingstone Farm Museum in Havre de Grace, Maryland, offers a fascinating glimpse into the rural heritage of Harford County, focusing on the period between 1880 and 1920. Situated on what was once a working farm within Susquehanna State Park, the museum aims to preserve and interpret the domestic arts, skilled trades, and farm implements of that era.

Visitors can explore a collection of historic buildings, including a stone farmhouse and various outbuildings, which showcase traditional crafts and trades. The museum's extensive collection of tools and artifacts was initially amassed by J. Edmund Bull, its founder. While some structures and artifacts have been impacted by recent events (a display barn was destroyed by fire in June 2024), the museum continues its mission through its remaining exhibits and special events.

Steppingstone Farm Museum provides an immersive experience with demonstrations of historical trades, family-friendly activities, and various festivals throughout the year, allowing visitors to "step back in time" and appreciate the ingenuity and daily life of a bygone era.
