The museum’s mission is to provide an entertaining environment where visitors can learn about rural and farm life in the Champlain Valley and Adirondacks prior to the 1950's. Visitors are invited to learn about New York's rural and farm life development through interactive demonstrations and displays of horse-drawn implements, gas engines, early tractors and other agricultural tools.

North Country Creamery
North Country Creamery is a 115-acre dairy farm located on Mace Chasm Road in the town of Keeseville. First generation farmers Ashlee Kleinhammer and Steven Googin operate the small-scale, premium dairy which produces cheese, milk, and yogurt from an on-farm, grass-fed milking herd. In addition to the dairy operations, they operate Clover Mead Cafe & Farmstore. The farm store offers North Country Creamery dairy products, as well as a variety of farmstead, organic, and local produce, while the café serves baked goods and made-to-order sandwiches throughout the year.
Mace Chasm Farm
Mace Chasm Farm grazes cattle, poultry and pigs and produces grafted tree nursery stock on about 120 acres in Keeseville, NY. They prepare delicious sausages, cuts, grinds, broths, smoked meats, salami, pate, and cooking fats each week in their small on-farm butcher shop. The Mace Chasm Farm team cares for the environment in their grazing and butchery practices. Their beef and sheep are grass-fed, and our pigs, chickens and turkeys forage on pasture and eat grains and whey, which makes for excellent meat and eggs. All of their animals are rotationally grazed. Each week, they produce a variety of fresh and smoked cuts and prepare sausages and sandwich meats using fresh herbs from the farm and organic spices. Mace Chasm Farm’s products can be purchased at their farm store and local summer and winter farmers’ markets.
"From pre-ride communication to the very end of the party, this lifelong cyclist was consistently impressed. My first BikeADK ride, it won't be my last and I'm bringing friends from Syracuse. Every morning for the rest of the year at least, when I put maple syrup from Hub On The Hill in my coffee, I will smile with gratitude."
"What a great way to see a snapshot of the (ADK) region, to shed important light on the farm to table model and to educate folks on how to support this local treasure."
"I don't consider myself to be an avid cyclist, but BikeADK made Bike the Barns accessible for folks of varying ability levels, and I was happy to ride along at my own pace and enjoy the magnificent autumn scenery. The event support was terrific."
"Without any doubt, Bike The Barns is a superior cycling event. As a ride organizer and a lifelong cyclist, this ride is my new standard. Three hours of driving each way for a 25 mile ride? I was a doubter, but no longer. I'll be back, and for more BikeADK events."
