1812 Weekend
Even though it had been nearly thirty years since the end of the American Revolution, our newly formed nation was still struggling to identify itself. The period of 1811-1820 was one of growth in the American States. This was especially true in Upstate New York, as new businesses popped up in towns all across the region. Shopkeepers, artisans, and craftsmen were busy making and selling supplies to the military and to their neighbors in villages - just like our 60+ historic structure museum at Genesee Country Village.
