Abstract:

The Horne Creek Living Historical Farm, located near the Yadkin River in Surry County, gives visitors the feel of farm life in 1900. Owned by the Hauser family, it was farmed before and after the Civil War. The Hauser family was self-sufficient, raising livestock and growing crops for food. What few things they purchased were sugar, salt, and flavorings, like vanilla.
