It's #MuseumWeek and for #SecretsMW day, we are showing you a part of the Farmhouse that is usually only seen by staff members.
Come out and participate in this great event put on by some fun Cooperstown Graduate Program students.
Check out what this Cooperstown Graduate Program student is talking about tonight.
Have you ever been to our cousin site, Boscobel House and Gardens ? Luna enjoyed her trip there today and learned so much more abou the Dyckman family history. Just a short train ride from the city, this house has a lot to offer visitors. #dyckmanfarmhouse #DFM #LunaDFM #Lunaonthelamb #boscobel
@ny1news doing another segment on Mornings on 1.
Thanks to @ny1news for giving Luna her television debut.
As another year is nearing an end it is time to look back at all the accomplishments and look forward to all that is to come. A HUGE thank you to all our volunteers over the years who have helped accomplish so much at the farmhouse!

One of the advantages of seeing the farmhouse in the different seasons is being able to truly appreciate it as our most significant and intriguing artifact. A clear sunny winter or early spring day is "movie" season - sunlight streams through the windows and the passing activity on Broadway creates patterns of light flickering on the walls.

Changing of the Seasons! Every season we tweak the interiors of the farmhouse to show how things would have changed during the year - we add new objects, move furniture, change signage and experiment with sounds and smells (yes, the apples will be back.) Over the next few weeks, our fall scenes will be installed as we get ready for the Historic House Trust Festival October 5-7. Here is a view of our latest experiment for when it is cold enough to bring back the "fires" to Dyckman.
