Living History
Living history starts here

Do you love telling stories? Passing on your passion for people and history? Join the Greenbank Mills family and take our visitors on a walk back in time to the days of the Early Republic! Tour guides (or as we call them, docents) will walk our visitors back in time through site tours that are comprised of engaging story-telling. Our docents will be provided the backbone of the tour, but we won't force you to stick to a specific script, as we believe that the best tours are the ones where your passion can shine through.

Opportunities range from site tours during our open days, instructing our school/camp programs, and outreach events.

We offer both costumed interpretation and more casual (wearing Greenbank logo'd gear).

Come jump on board!
