Artifact Overview

Firestone Farm in Greenfield Village is a "living history" re-creation of what life was like on the Ohio farm of Benjamin and Catherine Firestone in 1885. Part of this experience includes seeing farm animals typical of this era. Cats prowled the farmyards keeping the bird and rodent population, which consumed grains used to feed the larger farm animals, in check.
