点评:The 16-acre Historic Wagner Farm, located at 1520 Wagner Road in Glenview, Illinois, is the last remnant of the farm owned by members of the Wagner family since their arrival from Trier, Germany, in the 1850s. Irt was owned by the family until the last surviving member Rose Wagner died in 1997. After her death, local citizens persuaded the Glenview Park District to purchase and preserve the property as a historic working farm for the education and enjoyment of the community. And so it has been. Historic Wagner Farm is open to the public year-round, from dawn to dusk. It provides a unique opportunity for city slickers to learn about life on the farm during the 20th century. Visitors can learn about livestock and crops, tour the Wagners' 1920 farmhouse that featured electric lighting and indoor plumbing, step inside a two-story silo, go inside the chicken coop and see if the hens are laying eggs, see the draft horses at work, visit the livestock in the Wagner barn and livestock sheds, learn about where the food we eat comes from, pretend to run a farm stand, climb into a corn crib, swing on a tire, interact with a life-size dairy cow sculpture and explore the many interactive exhibits in the Historic Wagner Farm Heritage Center. Finally, shop at the 1930s grocery store and purchase a souvenir from the Museum Store. And if you are planning to make a Saturday visit, make time to browse through the Glenview Farmers Market, a popular attraction at the farm since 2007.
