We are so very appreciative of all the donations received to help us with additional security at the homestead. Thank you to all who contributed to the GoFundMe account … in memory of Bert, Billy and Moose.

You can also make donations on behalf of the Parma Area Historical Society/Stearns Homestead at the Grace Brothers in North Royalton. Your donation will be directly applied to cover feed costs.

Items always needed:

• Straw

The Parma Area Historical Society provides feed and care for all the farm animals and maintains the homestead through  animal feed sales, animal ‘adoptions’, items purchased in the Country Store and generous donations from our farm friends. Our farm animals and volunteers appreciate any and all donations. We also have an Amazon Wish List on our facebook page and use “AmazonSmile” for added donations to the homestead.
