Holiday Giving Initiatives

Giving Tuesday: December 3, 2024

This Giving Tuesday, make an impact for our non-profit by contributing to our Restoration Campaign. The Restoration Campaign aims to restore and enhance the historic structures of Spring Hill that exist alongside the 1821 farmhouse, that help to tell the holistic story of the site as an agricultural center of Stark County from 1811-1963 and a stop along the Underground Railroad in the early 19th century. So far, thanks in part to contributions and grants, we have restored the 1953 granary barn and fixed the structural integrity of the 1903 milk house. One of our oldest structures, the wool house (circa 1820s) is in need of structural and roof repairs in order to get it opened up to the public. Help us reach our goal of raising $1,000 on Giving Tuesday!

Support Preserving History!

Sustaining the legacy of both Charity Rotch and Irene McClain Wales, Spring Hill puts an emphasis on providing educational programming for the community. From field trips and the Student Historian Program, to Archaeology Day and the Underground Railroad Experience, and dedicated exhibits from our 150+ years of history – there’s so much history to share with our community.

For more information on educational programming or to provide us with programming you would like to see from Spring Hill, call 330-833-6749 or email director@springhillhistorichome.org.
