Grist Mill
Exhibit Building
Inside the Exhibit Building Since there was no supply store in the region Barrington Price constructed a general store on the Grist Mill site in 1877. Before this log structure was constructed residents of the Similkameen Valley had to travel to get their supplies. The general store later was converted to home and used as a place to live until 1979. Over the years the interior of the building has changed.

The store/house has been converted into a fun and interactive historic location for the entire family to enjoy. Inside the store/house, now called the Exhibit building, there is a model of me the mill and an area devoted to explaining the restoration process. There are even displays set up to play with that show you how a grist mill works! Model of Grist Mill

What was the Exhibit building originally called and when was it built?

Can you name of any displays that are now at the Exhibit Building?
