Piscataway Park and the Colonial Farm that is located here were established in the mid-1950’s to protect the view from Mt Vernon across the Potomac River. Unless the park is your destination it is unlikely you will just drive past and choose to stop. It is well off any major road. It showcases a Maryland farm on the eve of the Revolution. The house was moved here in 1987 and is thought to be built between 1760 and 1770. The property also includes a separate kitchen and a large tobacco barn also from the era. There is a kitchen garden, farm crops - all authentic to the time period both in type and in how they are grown and harvested as well as several pastures and hay fields. The rest of the park consists mostly of shore line with a nice dock where you can view a distant Mt. Vernon. The VC and most of the buildings are only open Saturday and Sunday but the grounds are open sunrise to sunset and the house was open when we were there as the staff were working on the crops.
