Historic Longstreet Farm promotes an appreciation for Monmouth County farm life at the end of the nineteenth century by preserving historic structures and practices through interpretive programs and tours. The sights, sounds, and smells of rural Monmouth County in the 1890s have been re-created on nine acres. Interpreters in period dress show both daily and seasonal agricultural and domestic activities. Buildings on the site include a workshop, farmhouse, smoke house, ice house, chicken house, blacksmith shop, potato house, wagon house, corn crib, hog house, Dutch barn, stable, and carriage house. These buildings further illustrate the farming and community life of early Dutch settlers.
