Manchester, United States Hildene, The Lincoln Family Home Full time

**FARM MANAGER**

**About Hildene**:
Located in southwestern Vermont, Hildene was the seasonal residence of Robert Lincoln and his wife Mary. Mr. Lincoln was the only child of President Abraham Lincoln and Mary Todd Lincoln to survive to adulthood. Between 1905 and the death of their granddaughter Mary Lincoln Beckwith in 1975, more Lincolns (three successive generations) lived at Hildene than at any other place in the world. In 1978, the non-profit Friends of Hildene purchased and preserved the estate which is open to the public year-round.

Hildene is among Vermont’s top cultural heritage sites and tourist destinations. Our attraction is comprised of a 1905 Georgian Revival home, formal and working gardens, restored Pullman railcar Sunbeam, agricultural operations, cheesemaking facility, twelve miles of trails, and year-round programming, all on 412 acres in beautiful Manchester, Vermont. The legacy of Abraham Lincoln and his family, shared through the estate Robert and later generations kept and cherished, are at the heart of our mission.
