NEWS and additional events
As some of you may know, the historic retreat house (part of the Mill’s history, residence of the former Millwright and other workers), is being refurbished from the ground up. The crumbling foundation is the first to be restored, at an estimated cost of $60,000. We are blessed to have an anonymous donor pledge to match dollar for dollar any other pledges for the house’s foundation up to $30,000. If you would like to donate towards this project, please contact us.
We are inviting you, our friends, to be a part of this project/mission. The retreat/ guest house will be used for retreats and other events, and for accommodations for visitors, travelers, and other housing needs.

More about harvest guest house
Harvest Guest House, built in the late 1800’s, accommodated early Pataha Flour Mill workers, most notably a Mr. Rawson, a millwright at the Mill for many years (and for whom our ‘famous’ Reuben sandwich is named!). Since the Mill closed in 1943, the house has been used as a temporary residence for multiple families, and as a Retreat House for the Mill.
With the passing of time the house has seen much wear and tear, beginning with the foundation, which is all but deteriorated. The vision for the house is to replace the foundation and to refurbish the interior and exterior, clean and modernize the guest rooms, while retaining its historic charm. Harvest Guest House will be available for many occasions including retreats, meetings, family gatherings, emergency accommodations, provided on a free will donation basis, according to our way of faith. If desired, the adjacent Mill May serve as a central meeting/dining place for house guests. We are very much looking forward to this renewed aspect of the Mill’s outreach. Thanks for giving hearts, we are well on our way to our $30,000 goal (one matched by an anonymous donor). To God be the glory!
God bless you!

About the Mill
Also known as the Houser Mill originally founded by John Houser, PFM is unique in that it is one of the last Mills left fully intact, with dozens of crafted machines, pulleys, and gizmos everywhere, almost untouched since its inception in the late 1800's.
Having four floors, access is possible through a ramp system which meanders throughout the bin (crib) areas.
Oh! and if you show up hungry, we also have a wonderful restaurant where we strive to prepare you the best food we can!
Mill House Dressing available!
We've been working on new production methods/schedules, labeling and distribution! Big changes are coming for our Mill House Dressing.
Come by and grab a bottle or two!
Thank You, and many blessings
