The East Hampton Historical Farm Museum is a living, interactive farm experience and cultural museum. We seek to deepen the community's understanding of the lifestyles of local citizens from the 1880s through the 1930s. These residents were farmers, baymen, craftsmen, and skilled laborers.
Our museum offers a fascinating journey through time and space, featuring exhibits of a family home and historical artifacts from their daily life; community events held to bring locals together and celebrate our town’s history; and our beautiful grounds open to the public to explore.

The term "Bonacker" comes from the Accabonac Harbor, derived from a Montaukett word for "ground nuts" (potatoes). For centuries, Bonackers have made their living as baymen, fishermen, and farmers, relying heavily on the sea and land for their sustenance. Clamming and fishing were central to their culture and cuisine. Many Bonac families are descendants of 17th-century English settlers who first came to East Hampton.
