| Description: | Commemorate the 151st anniversary of Kansas statehood at Grinter Place State Historic Site.. Join us 9:30 a.m. - 5 p.m. for special Kansas Day craft projects and freshly baked cupcakes from the Grinter kitchen wood stove. A trip to Grinter Place isn't just a look inside the oldest home in Wyandotte County, it's a step back to the days of frontier life along the Kansas and Missouri border. Overlooking the historic Delaware Crossing on the Kansas River, Grinter Place was the home to Annie and Moses Grinter. Annie, a Lenape (Delaware), helped to farm, raise poultry and livestock, and planted an apple orchard. Moses operated a ferry and a trading post, where he traded with the Lenape Indians. Admission is $3 adults, $1 students. Kansas Historical Foundation members and children five and under are admitted free.. | |||
