Restoration Projects
At the McNaught Homestead, restoration is about more than preserving buildings — it’s about keeping history alive. Each project uncovers stories, showcases craftsmanship, and preserves the history that connects us to past generations. Through dedicated commitment, thoughtful planning, generous donations, essential grants, hundreds of volunteer hours, and community support, the Homestead continues to be a place where history is not only protected and honored but experienced, celebrated, and passed on to future generations.
