Drive Through History

The changing of seasons brings new reasons to get outside and soak up the scenic beauty of Columbia County. It also brings two new Drive Through History road trips for you to explore! If you haven't taken one yet, these self-guided drives offer a fun and FREE way to experience the area's history and culture at your own pace.

Here's a look at our newest road trips:

Good Apples

The 2020 apple harvest is well underway! Agriculture has long been the lifeblood of Columbia County, and many of our apple orchards have been operating for more than a century. Pick up a few stories along with your Jonathans, Empires and Macouns on this tour of seven historic orchards around the County.

Schoolhouse Stories

From the late 18th through the early 20th century, one-room schoolhouses were the heart of education in Columbia County. Though modest in size and comforts, these district schools provided a tight-knit, family-like environment where students of all ages learned together, and from one another. This road trip visits nine former one-room schoolhouses, including our own c.1850 Ichabod Crane Schoolhouse.
