The Cedar Grove Historical Society welcomes you to the Morgan Farm and Museum. This special property is a 14 acre site that was farmed continuously from the mid-1800's until 1985 when Courtenay Morgan donated the farm to the Township of Cedar Grove. Today the house functions as a museum depicting it much as it was in the early 1900's, with related farm equipment in the barn. Visitors are welcome every Wednesday morning from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. or by appointment. Join us in some of our varied and interesting volunteer opportunities.
