The Holcombe-Jimison Farmstead Museum is dedicated to the preservation of Hunterdon County's agricultural heritage from the 18th into the 20th centuries.


   The Museum is housed in the restored three story bank barn that was built into the hillside to make both floors accessible from ground level.  Livestock were kept on the lower level, crops above.  In bad weather, the farmer could feed without going outdoors.  Today, some of the exhibits arranged in the barn cover the tools and equipment used by the farmer to raise and harvest the crops that provided fodder for livestock and commodities to sell. Other displays cover the domestic chores of the farmer's wife in the preparation and preservation of food and the making of clothing.  Early examples of now common implements and appliances give the visitor a sense of passing time. Holcombe-Jimison Farmstead Museum
