The Queens County Farm Museum is a remarkable historical landmark. Part of the fascination that makes our farm site so historically enticing is its impressive endurance. This site has been farmed through four local wars and two world conflicts. Think of the agricultural strides required to survive those events while meeting the agricultural needs of a geographic area that grew from a new colony to a teeming metropolis! The development of the farm was not only linked to the growth of New York City but also to the growth and development of the United States as an agricultural and industrial giant. The farm is a dynamic entity, which continues to change and evolve. The romance of the site draws visitors back to the early years of the new colony while providing a view of modern-day agriculture More Info below.
