overview : When Jane and Heman settled on the site in 1849, they were on the frontier. By 1900, the Gibbs family was operating a market-garden farm on the edge of a growing metropolitan region. The house, which reached its present size in 1874, is furnished the way a farm house close to the city would have been in 1900. - There are also two Dakotah style tipi at the Gibbs Museum
