The Forge
Report
Many of our tools are over 100 years old, and the rest not far behind. The shop is equally well equipped with modern tools and equipment, making a brief overview for you blacksmiths and tool aficionados impossible in anything less then a novella. Wildweed Farm is our home and the home of Village Blacksmith.
Tour the Forge
Report
Over time the forge has grown into an extraordinary collection of working blacksmith's tools, many over 100 years old and the rest not far behind. The shop is equally well equipped with modern tools and equipment, making a brief overview for you blacksmiths and tool aficionados impossible in anything less then a novella.
Wildweed Farm
Report
Wildweed Farm is our home and the home of Village Blacksmith. The 1850's post and beam farmhouse was apparently built by a local millwright whose Civil War era grave lies not too far away. Over the years bits and pieces of the farm were sold off and when I acquired the property in 1994, bulldozing the dilapidated house was a reasonable option.
