Fosterfields takes a different approach to history than most sites — instead of focusing on a single event or famous figure, it tells the story of everyday farming life in late 19th and early 20th century New Jersey. The working farm in Morris Township operates with period equipment and methods, and the staff demonstrate the full cycle of agricultural work that sustained rural NJ families for generations. The Victorian farmhouse and surrounding outbuildings are beautifully preserved. For younger visitors especially, watching animals being cared for and crops being tended with 100-year-old tools is something that sticks.
