The Busti Historical Society 20-acre campus tells the story of rural western NY during the 1800s and early 1900s. The campus boasts a working 1839 grist mill, restored 1846 home, large barn filled with working artifacts and meeting space and an ever changing museum featuring artifacts and stories from Busti NY, just south of Jamestown, NY. The Society features a large pavilion, licensed kitchen (baking, canning, etc.) and smaller meeting room in the kitchen area. The campus is available for events and gatherings with plenty of rentable space for outdoor events and free parking.
