Smith Family Farm
Historic site in New York, United States
The Smith Family Farm was the boyhood home of Joseph Smith, the founder of the Latter Day Saint movement.[1]
The farm—located in the townships of Palmyra, Wayne County and Manchester, Ontario County, New York—includes the Sacred Grove, the Smiths' restored frame home, and a reconstructed log home.[2] The farm site passed into ownership of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) in 1915, and in the 1990s, the church restored the frame home, reconstructed the log home, and built a welcome center. Church missionaries provide free tours.[3][4]
