In a concise reading and through his own photography and historic photographs from the Billings Family Archives, Suokko provides a unique tour of the Mansion, art collection, formal flower gardens, and forest at Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park and the working dairy farm and agricultural history museum at Billings Farm & Museum.



Please join us for this story of one of Vermont’s inspiring places. A reception follows the presentation.
