Demonstration Grind at The Mill at Anselma

A milling demonstration will take place Saturday, May 13th from 10 am to 4pm. Visitors will hear the rumble of the ancient wooden gears, watch the power of the 16ft steel water wheel, and experience the grinding of the mill stones. The Mill at Anselma (c. 1747) served its local agricultural community for nearly 300 years and is considered the most complete example of a Colonial-era custom grist mill in the United States. Restored and recognized as a National Historic Landmark, the Mill provides a powerful educational experience, allowing visitors to experience Pennsylvania’s industrial and agricultural heritage through milling demonstrations, tours of the site and hands-on activities.
