Walk the Binsack Trail with your favorite trail buddy!
This Tamworth Tigers uniform was worn by Earle Haywood Remick, who owned and operated the Remick Brothers' Grocery Store (now the Olde Village Store, later expanding to The Other Store) with his brother, Levi Wadsworth "Waddy" Remick. The two brothers were first cousins to Dr. Edwin Crafts Remick, the founder of Remick Museum. Earl was born in 1900. He was a quiet man, except in matters of baseball and politics, which were his passion. In the early 1900's, Earl, Waddy, and Dr. Remick played for the Tamworth Tigers, a semi-professional baseball team. |
A Working Farm Museum
in Historic Tamworth Village.....
Come to the Remick Country Doctor Museum & Farm, where the agricultural way of life in New Hampshire, from 1790 to the present, is preserved. You can see a working farm with sheep, goats, cows, steers, oxen, chickens, and turkeys. In spring and summer, see lambs and pigs. Walk into the 1830's garden and view the historic crops and vegetables. Take a leisurely 6/10 mile hike on the Binsack Trail, a low impact experience offering spectacular views of Remick Farm, Mount Chocorua, and the Ossipee Mountain Range.
Remick Farm has a cattle barn, milk house, maple sugar house, stable, and a historic English Barn. Many of these buildings are open in spring, summer, and during special events. Take a tour of these facilities with a Remick Museum Tour Guide, who provides you with exclusive access and information on historic farm tools and equipment.
Come inside the Museum Farm House, where you can tour the living quarters of Dr. Edwin Crafts Remick and his wife, Marion Ella Miles Remick. See the modest furnishings of their country life; view the medical equipment of the doctor. In the Visitor's Center, view exhibits on The Farmer's Year, and other changing, seasonal exhibits.
Visit the Captain Enoch Remick House, the boyhood home of Dr. Remick. The last two generations of the Remick family were country doctors. Dr. Edwin Remick (father) and Dr. Edwin Crafts Remick (son), pictured above, served the rural community where they were born and raised. Together they provided 99 years of continuous medical care to Tamworth and surrounding towns.
The Captain Enoch Remick House contains the antique furnishings of the country doctors, which include an antique toy collection and 19th century murals attributed to the American painter, John Avery. The original medical office and medicine room, used by both doctors, are preserved on the first floor.
The Remick family settled in Tamworth over 200 years ago, and six generations of the same family worked the farm. Each generation prospered, and was active in the town's history. Before his death in 1993, Dr. Edwin Crafts Remick created a foundation to preserve his home, farm and family history in a way that the public could enjoy. The Remick family's 200 year history in Tamworth gives us all a glimpse into how people worked and played in this historic landscape.
