History Events in Farmingdale

Join us for our Founder's Birthday! Cake and Lemonade at the Big House in the afternoon. Come out and Celebrate an important day at the Village - the BIRTHDAY of our founder, Mr. James P. Allaire! Mr. Allaire bought the property we now call the 'Historic Village at Allaire' in 1822. Here he would create the largest iron-producing site in the State of NJ during the 1830s. The manufacturing of iron thrived largely due to the expansive self-sufficient industrial community that Mr. Allaire planned out. In honor of our founder's birthday please enjoy special historical demonstrations, children's games/activities, tours of the historic homes and craft shops, and MORE!
