New Picnic Tables! Enjoy lunch or dinner al fresco at our new picnic tables courtesy of Billy Taylor and the Friends of Barclay Farmstead. As part of his Eagle Scout requirements, Billy planned for and executed the creation of four wooden picnic tables that now reside in the shaded area just west of the farm house. The Friends supported the project through funding the material cost. Many thanks for a job well done!
