Explore history by the acre on the former grounds of Nelson Dewey’s estate! From 1800s machinery to a re-created rural village, experience Stonefield – the kind of agricultural community that cultivated Wisconsin’s growth. See with your own eyes the first tractors that turned the soil for our rolling hills of wheat and corn and learn why our pastures are dotted with grazing Holsteins. Relive the story of Wisconsin from the beginning on a tour of the home site of Nelson Dewey, our first governor. Make a connection with our agricultural roots with a stroll through Stonefield’s re-created rural village, visit a 1900s farmstead, and explore the largest collection of farming objects in the state at the Wisconsin State Agricultural Museum. Stonefield shares how Wisconsin became “America’s Dairyland” and much more!
