The tour will include homesteads and farmsteads of early settlers and area ordained leaders. It will also feature meetinghouses and date stones of various Mennonite groups, as well as historically significant churches of other local denominations. Mill sites, including Christian Bowman's mill, Peter Bowman's hemp mill, Good's Mill, and the Bowmansville Roller Mill, along with the site of Joseph Bowman's farewell address prior to migration to upper Canada, will be noted.
