There’s lots to enjoy on a day out at the Museum of East Anglian Life in Stowmarket, with 17 historic buildings, 75 acres of beautiful green space and riverside nature trails.

From farm to fork, the museum collection has a particular focus on the production of food and social history relating to it. Enjoy an annual programme of temporary exhibitions, talks, events and workshops as well as daily talks and tours.

See what’s growing in the museum’s orchard and meet the friendly animal including Zippo the Suffolk Punch Horse. In 2022 the museum’s turn of the 19th century Watermill will reopen after a major restoration project, ready to grind flour ready to bake loaves of delicious bread in the wood-fired oven. For fans of machinery, join us on a Steam Sunday to see working engines and farming equipment working the fields in the traditional way.

Onsite Osier Café available to both museum and non-museum patrons and is incredibly welcoming and family-friendly. They sell a range of high quality homemade food, hot drinks and freshly baked cakes. With a variety of Vegetarian, healthy options, Gluten free and vegan meals/snacks also available. Where possible, the café also incorporates produce grown at the museum into meals. Keep an eye out for the walled garden leeks and potatoes making an appearance in the soup of the day!
