You think you know cornbread?

You’ll see cornbread made with fruit jam, hot peppers, bacon, cheese, herbs, and you choose the best.

The Cedar Grist Mill volunteers work the mill, answer questions about the old style milling process and welcome visitors from around the globe. You can watch the millers mill grain the way it was done in 1876, and take home a bag of fresh flour or cornmeal.

About the Mill

The Cedar Creek Grist Mill is a working museum, showing visitors the inside workings of a grist mill of that time period. Visitors will be greeted and given a ‘Working Tour’ of how this mill still runs today. Huge pulleys and belts spinning above and below are turning and churning to produce flour, corn meal and even apple cider. These samples are given to the visitors to take home for a first hand experience of the products. No gas or electricity are used, simply mother nature’s water power. All who work here are volunteers and are more than happy to explain how this process works.

The Mill rests on a steep and rocky slope at the bottom of the narrow gorge of Cedar Creek. It is the only grist mill in Washington that has maintained its original structural integrity, mills with stones, and is water powered. A covered bridge spanning Cedar Creek was completed in 1994 and continues to draw visitors from all over the United States.
