Its Christmas Eve 1864 - was the theme of the Lantern Tour we attended. Groups of about 20 carried lanterns throughout the village to visit some of the houses and their residents. We were invited inside where some of the group members interacted with the "residents of the houses." The tour took 90 min. and I would highly recommend visiting Hale Farm for one of their lantern tours. It is very dark, even using the lanterns, so I would also suggest you take a small flashlight.They have a very nice gift shop that was open and hot drinks were available.

We really had a great relaxing day strolling through a place that is set in 1860's. The workers were dressed in period dress and demonstrated a number of crafts. There was a schoolhouse with a tough school master. This is a great place to take the kids or just enjoy a quiet relaxing day strolling back in time.

Plan to do a lot of walking. Well worth seeing everything. Very educated staff. Good special events. Try to ride the train to the village for a fun day.

Hale Farm, which is owned and operated by the Western Reserve Historical Society, is situated within the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. It is an outdoor living history museum featuring life and crafts from the mid-1800s. It includes farm animals, pastures, gardens, and historic houses with historical interpreters dressed in period costume. Most of the buildings were relocated to the Hale Farm in order to be saved from demolition or deterioration. They now make up the fictional town of "Wheatfield". The craftsman and interpreters will tell you all about the events of the period as if it were present-day news. It is very authentic and there are a wide variety of workshops showcasing the trades of Glass Blowing, Broom Making, Pottery, Weaving, Spinning wool into yarn, and much more. It is a live working farm complete with all the barns, pastures and farm animals you might expect. The admission is very affordable and you are sure to enjoy spending the entire day there while visiting the National Park.

Hale Farm is near and part of Ohio Amish country, also worth a visit. Towns like Walnut Creek, Sugarcreek are fun too. Ohio Amish claim to be even larger than Pennsylvania Amish region.

I had a wonderful visit at Hale Farm and Village in Bath, Ohio Saturday, August 31, 2013. The town was full of crafters, artisans, and vendors who all provide products made in Ohio. There were wares made of wood, concrete, paper, wool, and iron. I saw so many kinds of jewelry, jams, and assorted goodies. All the vendors were set up along a road in between historic homes, buildings, and shops in and among animal pastures, planted crop fields, a blacksmith shop and a glass blowing endeavor. The visitor's center was open with displays about the 175 years of activity at Hale Farm and what still goes on there. A well stocked gift shop was busy with customers and there was plenty of free convenient parking and super clean restrooms. Often times there is a full menu of cooked food to satisfy all....even the picky eater in many of us. This was one of the many special days that go on at Hale Farm & Village all year. This is a must see attraction when in or near the Cleveland or Akron areas.

They have really done a great job capturing history, they have people in all the houses who tell you the history, they also have craftspeople making brooms, pottery, blacksmith, glassblower....something for everyone. But be warned, there is a lot of walking, not real friendly for people with disabilities - no handicapped access - it would not be possible to maintain the historical integrity of the facilities with handicapped access in my opinion. We did see one woman in a wheelchair, but it is quite hilly and a lot of the steps are very steep.

I learned a lot about life at Hale Farm & Village and making maple syrup. Workers explained the tree-tapping art and displayed how the sap is boiled into maple syrup. There was also a pancake and sausage breakfast/lunch going on and that was really good helping fight off the cold weather. The gift shop is full of one-of-a-kind items made at Hale Farm. There is hand blown glass, maple syrup and candies, books, tableware, gifts, and much more.I learn so much every time I visit and it is fun.

We attended the Civil War re-enactment on August 11. It was a very interesting day. The re-enactors were knowledgeable and interesting. The battle was interesting, but the handling of the crowd was less than optimal. I am handicapped and there was no effort to allow seating on the benches provided to the handicapped. I stood as long as I could and then had to leave. Benches were occupied by young children.
