Becks Mill

Brenda and myself started volunteering at Becks Mill - An old mill from 1808 that recently restarted operations.

First I skimmed the leaves out of the retaining pool fed by the cave spring.

Then I opened up the water and let it start powering the overshot waterwheel and turbine.

Then I went down to the mill and started grinding corn

Brenda worked in the concession stand.
