Show Details
G.W. Hinckley started Good Will Farm in 1888 to serve orphans and other needy boys. The home and school soon expanded to include girls.
By 1913, it had 500 acres and 13 structures to serve some 200 children.
His granddaughter, Harriett Hinckley Price, ran the tea room starting in about 1934.
