Island Farm is a living history site on Roanoke Island, just north of Manteo. Centered around a restored 1847 homeplace, Island Farm recreates what life was like on Roanoke Island before the Civil War. Daily programming brings opportunities for visitors to interact with the site's animals (Corolla wild horses, a cow, sheep, and chickens), its buildings (including the oldest restored home on Roanoke Island), historic crafts, games, and more. Through on-site interpreters, Island Farm provides a completely immersive, fun, and educational experience for the entire family. Visit the Farm, and engage with Outer Banks history, through special events, workshops, school group field trips, and unique daily educational programs.
We really enjoyed this laid back experience with reenactors who shared details about the farm circa 1850. It's a nice place to wander and explore. We especially enjoyed visiting with Rex at the "mansion," a descendant of the original family.

This is a great place to visit while on vacation at the Outer Banks of NC. The history is tangible and I could imagine myself living in the time period.
