Frequently Asked Questions
Is it wheelchair accessible?
Because our Museum and Farm are rural and early 19th century environments, some historic spaces have limited accessibility. This is due to unpaved paths, narrow doorways, and thresholds that are historically correct. Although often not accessible, reasonable accommodations will be made and we hope to continue making our spaces as accessible as possible in our future renovations. Call ahead to make arrangements at 716-433-3247.
Can I bring my dog?
Pets are not allowed at the Museum and farm out of consideration of our heritage animals who call the museum home. Service Animals are allowed.
Are there modern restrooms?
We love all things historic - but we do offer a modern restroom inside of the historic Forsyth - Warren Tavern.
Can I take photographs?
Of Course! Photos are welcome all over our campus. All Professional photographers and those wishing to conduct photo shoots are asked to review our photography policy by clicking this link: Photography Policy
