​Today, the Samels Farmstead stands fully equipped and
preserved on the site, and it has become an education

Samels Farm in Williamsburg, MI

WELCOME TO OUR SPRING/SUMMER/FALL LINE-UP OF WORKSHOPS/CLASSES/OPEN HOUSES.  WE HOPE TO BE BACK!!!

Due to COVID - 19 and the restrictions placed on us concerning gatherings, all of our events for the summer and fall were cancelled.

We held our annual membership meeting via ZOOM in September 2020. 

​We missed seeing you all this past season, and intend to be back in operation in 2021 - healthy and hardy!!
