Day 31: Frazier Farmstead

Christmas is a special time at the Frazier Farmstead. On the first Wednesday of December they open their doors for a Victorian Christmas Open House. The house is decorated in grand Victorian style for this event and features handmade and reproduction gift items for sale.  Holiday sweets and hot spiced cider are served. Frazier Farmstead Museum is a six acre site listed on the National Register of Historic Places.  The Frazier home was built in 1892 and houses a fine collection of antique furnishings and other items of the 19th Century daily living.  Most of the furnishings are the original items to the home. The site also houses a 1918 barn, a carriage house and several other buildings, all of which were an integral part of a turn-of-the-century working farm. The Frazier Farmstead is located at
1403 Chestnut Street
in Milton-Freewater. The museum is open Thursday through Saturday from 11am -4pm. The facility is closed January, February and March. There is no admission charge, however donations are welcome.
