2. Sylvester Manor Educational Farm
(directions)
Take a step back in time at Sylvester Manor Educational Farm. Established in 1652, this historic plantation and now a working organic farm offers a unique experience to visitors. Locals suggest touring the Manor house, exploring the expansive grounds, and making sure you don’t forget to stock up on fresh, farm-grown produce or a jar of homemade jam from the farm stand. You’ll also find the Devil’s Footprint that we wrote about in our free guide to the little-known historic places on Shelter Island. Sylvester Manor is a tangible connection to Shelter Island's colonial history and an inspiration for sustainable living.
