New York Adventure Club Private Tour of the Dyckman Farmhouse
Wine reception to follow
Saturday, June 15th at 4:30PM
Registration required
If you were to take a time machine back to 18th-century Manhattan, you would come across lush forests, rolling hills, an abundance of wildlife, and small Dutch family farms scattered throughout the countryside. While most of that rural beauty has vanished thanks to 300 years of industrialization, one lone farmhouse has stood the test of time, still in its original plot on bustling Broadway. It’s time to explore this important piece of New York history after the doors close to the public.
Join New York Adventure Club for an after-hours tour & wine reception at the Dyckman Farmhouse — built in 1784, this Dutch Colonial style farmhouse is the last remaining one of its kind in Manhattan.
Our private experience at this hidden gem in Manhattan will include:
- Stories around the Dyckman family, rural Northern Manhattan landscape, and a lifestyle that disappeared during the transformation from farming community to urban neighborhood
- A private, after-hours tour through the historic rooms and garden of the 238-year-old Dyckman farmhouse
- A wine & cheese reception in the backyard garden, which includes a small reproduced smokehouse from 1916, a well, and a Military Hut that British troops would have lived in during the early days of the Revolutionary War
