Preserving Anselma For The Future
With the vision and foresight of Samuel and Eleanor Morris, the French & Pickering Creeks Conservation Trust purchased the mill property from the estate of Oliver E. Collins in 1983. In 1999, the Mill at Anselma Preservation and Educational Trust was formed to complete the Mill's restoration and create an innovative historical attraction for the enjoyment of schoolchildren, scholars, visitors, and the community.
Today, the Mill at Anselma connects visitors with America's rich industrial and agricultural past through tours and milling demonstrations. The Mill sells its own stoneground flour and cornmeal, and hosts a weekly farmer's market on its historic grounds.

It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 2005.

Famous quotes containing the words preserving and/or future:
“The poor President, what with preserving his popularity and doing his duty, is completely bewildered.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The danger of the past was that men became slaves. The danger of the future is that men may become robots. True enough, robots do not rebel. But given man’s nature, robots cannot live and remain sane, they become “Golems,” they will destroy their world and themselves because they cannot stand any longer the boredom of a meaningless life.”
—Erich Fromm (1900–1980)
