Hildene, the Lincoln Family Home - 2-pack of Passes (TWO not four)
Hildene, the Lincoln Family Home - Pack of TWO Guest Passes
Includes admission to Robert and Mary's home, gardens, Hildene Farm, Pullman car Sunbeam, Dene Farm and about 12 miles of walking trails.
Hildene, The Lincoln Family Home is located in the quintessential Vermont village of Manchester. Robert Lincoln, the only child of Abraham and Mary Todd Lincoln to survive to adulthood, built his ancestral home in 1905. It was only occupied by the Lincoln family until 1975. Hildene’s 412 acres include the historic home, a goat dairy, restored Pullman car, a working farm and 12 miles of walking trails; a formidable landscape to put Hildene’s mission, Values into Action, into practice. The formal garden boasts a thousand peony blooms, many from the original plants which date back to 1908. The Rowland Agricultural Center at Hildene Farm houses our cheese making facility and is home to a herd of Nubian goats, whose milk is used to produce our goat cheese. 2011 marked the arrival of the 1903 Pullman Palace car, Sunbeam. It is a beautiful example of a wooden Pullman car, but more importantly, we use Sunbeam to tell the paradoxical story “Many Voices,” those of the Company, High Society, African American Pullman porters and us; our guests and our staff. We also offer excellent educational opportunities for children. From our school programs to summer camps, our staff engages youngsters in subjects including agriculture, natural science and history. For more information on Hildene please contact us, we would love you hear from you. Our phone number is 800.578.1788 or you can email us at info@hildene.org
