Locust Lawn
The historic Locust Lawn Farm in Gardiner, NY is a rare treasure filled with the furnishings, clothing and possessions of five generations of the prosperous Hasbrouck family. Locust Lawn is owned and operated by the Locust Grove Estate as a museum and nature preserve and is currently only open by appointment.
The Federal-style mansion, built in 1814 for Colonel Josiah Hasbrouck, was once the heart of a 1,000 acre gentleman’s farm. Colonel Hasbrouck served in the Revolutionary War as part of the Ulster County Militia, and later as a United States Representative during the Jefferson and Monroe administrations, a time of great optimism and change in the new republic. The home and farm he developed on his return to the Hudson Valley represent both the height of fashion and the Jeffersonian ideal of pride in the rural, agricultural tradition.
Join us as we explore this seldom seen gem. We'll be the first to see the newly reopened dining room as well as a new display of clothing from the collections. We hope you can join us for this fantastic event!
