We have plenty of free parking for visitors next to the farmhouse, with more parking available in the adjacent parking lot.

5. What can I do at your museum?
Summertime is the busiest season at The Dudley Farm Museum with the farmhouse open for tours, gardens being tended, and The Farmers’ Market in full operation. However the farm does remain active year round with chickens and hopefully other livestock in the future. Visitors may watch as fresh eggs are collected from the hens.  Maple sugaring does occur seasonally. Available year round, the hiking trails at the farm that connect to Guilford Land Trust trails offer a unique opportunity to enjoy the grounds in the quieter fall and winter months.

6. Is your museum accessible to visitors in wheelchairs?
At this time we do not have wheelchair access. We are sorry for this inconvenience.

7. Can we hold our event (business meeting/birthday party/wedding/family reunion) at the Museum?
The Munger Barn is available for rent for celebrations and meetings. Please feel free to email [email protected] or call 203-457-9768 for more information.

8. Are we allowed to take photographs and make videos in your museum?
Of course. You’ll find many beautiful areas to take pictures for your personal use and we’d love if you tag your favorite shots on Facebook. Commercial photographers will be asked to pay a site fee. Photographers please contact us to discuss your shoot before visiting.      Click Here to See policy…Policy

We have several picnic tables available for your use. So come spend some time on the Farm, pack your lunch, and enjoy a trip back to the late 19th Century. In order to protect our collections food and drink are not allowed within the buildings.

10. Is this a family-friendly museum?
Yes! Children of all ages enjoy the animals, while visitors “of a certain age” enjoy remembering their grandparents (or great-grandparents!) home.
