Title
Landmarks Illinois Award- Presentation
History
Landmarks Illinois recognized the Stellwagen Farm by awarding it with a preservation award for the restoration of the 10 outbuildings that are on site. Landmarks Illinois' motto is "people preserving places for people," and it is a great honor that Stellwagen was one of nine recipients to receive this award. This distinction signifies that the farm is viewed as a historic site important to the Orland community and to the state. This award will also help when applying for grants and explaining why the farm is an important piece of history to the Village of Orland Park.
The Landmarks Illinois award, which was awarded to the Village of Orland Park and Stellwagen family on October 18, 2019, will be shown by Trustee Kathleen Fenton, Museum Curator Sarah Stasukewicz, and members of the Stellwagen family.
