VISITING THE MILL SITE
If you would like to stop by and look at the mill on the off season, please feel free to roam the grounds, but the mill will be locked for security. The mill and the Crooked River with the snow and ice in the winter are very beautiful and wonderful photo opportunities abound. We are closed during the winter. Go here to see our Summer Events

DAVIS FAMILY FOUNDATION GRANT
The Davis Family Foundation is a public charitable foundation established by Phyllis C. Davis and H. Halsey Davis of Falmouth, Maine, to support educational, medical and cultural/arts organizations located primarily in Maine.
The Foundation was established following Mr. Davis' retirement as President and Chairman of Shaw’s Supermarkets, Inc. Their overriding goal for the Foundation was simple and straightforward: “to make grants where they will do the most good and where our gifts make a real difference.” The Foundation has provided more than $63.5 million in grants since its grantmaking activities began in 1986.
