Today, the site is run by the National Trust for Historic Preservation and is the home to an innovative partnership with Arcadia Center for Food & Sustainable Agriculture. This site boasts two gorgeous historic homes, whose history has included many fascinating residents and stories. Those are being re-told today with a vision focused on craft, local food and an agrarian oasis in a busy suburban neighborhood.
