White Haven was a working farm from the time that Col. Frederick F. Dent purchased the property in 1820 until after Grant’s ownership ending in 1885, and into the early 20th century. Ranger Blake discusses Grant’s farming experience at Hardscrabble as well as the farming process for the Dent family and enslaved laborers at White Haven.
