Colonel John Taylor fed the troops during the American Revolution. Local farmers brought their crops to his mill and together they powered Washington's army in their battle against the British.

​

Now that mill, a place that witnessed the Revolution, is in danger. In 2022, a large vehicle rammed the side of the mill, endangering its structural stability. Vandals have spray-painted this American treasure.

​

With America's 250th anniversary in 2026, the Friends of Col. John Taylor's Grist Mill, a registered non-profit want to help stabilize and interpret the mill building and surrounding landscape (the Taylor's Mill Historic District).

This mill tells the story of Hunterdon County, New Jersey, and America!
