The mission of Steppingstone Museum is to preserve the Harford County farming culture and artifacts of the turn of the 20th century, to educate the public about our agricultural heritage, to demonstrate the past through rural arts and crafts, and to promote related educational and community activities. The museum preserves and demonstrates the rural arts and crafts of the 1880-1920 period in Harford County. The Steppingstone collection is comprised of domestic arts, skilled trades and husbandry. The Artifacts in each category were used by skilled specialist whose talents are scarce in our present urban and industrial society.

        The visitors can spend the afternoon touring the sites of a once working Harford County farm. The farmhouse, furnished as a turn-of-the-century home, charms the visitor as a guide invites you to share the daily life of the period. Tours include the formal sitting room, sleeping quarters, and kitchen with its wood burning stove and ice box. The stone farmhouse is furnished with antiques from the 1880-1920 time period. Displays of quilts, lacework, dolls, toys, books, and other memorabilia complete this collection.
