Lang Pioneer Village Museum

A LITTLE ABOUT US

Back before the local grocery store aisles were filled with miles of oven-ready pizzas and microwave meals, our diet centered on what we could grow, find or hunt.
Costumed interpreters at Lang Pioneer Village Museum bring to life a period in local culinary history (1820 –1900) when people depended on knowledge of the local environment and on their gardens for survival.
Whether it’s fresh corn on the cob smothered in butter, horse-drawn wagon rides through the historic village, sack races, sampling freshly-baked treats or Red FifeWheat bread hot from a woodstove, a visit to Lang envelopes guests in the sights, sounds, smells – and tastes –of another time.
Visitors to the Museum can take part in seasonal hands-on activities including butter making, pressing apple cider, candle making, and cooking donuts over an open fire.
Lang Pioneer Village seeks to source products locally and let visitors know where they come from; they’re building community and raising awareness of the bounty that is available right on our doorstep.
