Grist Mill Grain Fest at Plimoth Patuxet Museums

Join us for Grain Fest at the Museum and let your curiosity pop with kernels of knowledge.

In the past, grains such as corn and wheat went from farm, to mill, to table. Today, the Plimoth Grist Mill works with local and regional partners to reinvigorate their production. At Grain Fest, you'll learn how you can be a part of the growing local grain chain while meeting millers, bakers, and other partners who grow and make things with grains.

All outdoor Grain Fest activities are open to the public and free of charge. Admission is required for entry to the Plimoth Patuxet’s exhibits.
