From 1808 to 1972, the Erland Lee (Museum) Home was home to six generations of the Lee Family, including Erland and Janet Lee, who were two of the co-founders of the Women's Institute.

Widely recognized as the birthplace of the global Women's Institute movement in 1897, the Dining Room table in the home, still present today, was where Janet Lee penned the first Constitution and By-Laws that the Women's Institutes uses to this day.

The home is open for tours Fridays & Saturdays from 11 am to 4 pm.
