- Following the Old Hallowell Day parade on Water St., take the trolley, drive, or walk up to the Homestead and join a Revolutionary War regiment of reenactors at their encampment overlooking the Kennebec River (for those with young children, musket fire will be loud)
- Participate in a demonstration of colonial children’s games by Fort Western staff
- Watch log hewing and metal smithing demonstrations
- Take a self-guided tour of the Vaughan Home and the terraced perennial gardens
- Hike the trails in the Vaughan Woods to see the arched bridges and dip your toes in the Vaughan Brook
- And when you need to take a rest, sit in the shade on the piazza for a spectacular view of the Kennebec River
Join us!
Directions: Do not rely on google maps or GPS to find us! They will lead you astray! We are at 2 Litchfield Rd at the 90 degree curve where Second St. becomes Litchfield Rd. in Hallowell. From Second St., the homestead entrance is on your left. There is a brick pillar on either side of the driveway. The right one is marked as 2 Litchfield Rd. You will see a white building in the distance. Parking is available.
