Explore the living legacy of Providence Hill Farm, where craftsmanship, skill and history intertwine. Established in 1782 by pioneering Quakers who carved their way through the hills of Southwestern Pennsylvania, Providence Hill Farm stands as a testament to a rich and storied heritage. Rooted deeply in the soil, this historic farm originated as a thriving grain and livestock operation under the stewardship of skilled Quaker pioneers.
The Society of Friends (Quakers), historically valued handcrafted items that were durable and practical, expressing a dedication to simplicity and utility. Proficient in metalworking they created various items such as household utensils, tools, and even architectural elements like hinges and locks. This tradition emphasized skillful workmanship and often favored using locally available materials. Over time, Quaker metalwork has evolved, but its core principles of simplicity and quality craftsmanship remained.
Today, we proudly continue this legacy, preserving the traditions that have shaped the farm for over two centuries.
