Obadiah La Tourette Grist & Saw Mill

The Obadiah LaTourette Grist and Saw Mill, located in Long Valley, NJ, is a historic property listed on the State and National Registers of Historic Places. Built in the 18th century, the mill played a vital role in the local economy, grinding grain and producing flour and animal feed. With its original machinery still intact, the mill stands as a testament to over 200 years of milling history.

The Washington Township Land Trust, a non-profit organization, acquired the mill in 1991 and embarked on a restoration project with the help of volunteers and donated materials. The trust's mission is to protect and preserve the ecological, cultural, and historical integrity of Washington Township and its surroundings, while promoting public interest in conserving land for open space uses in harmony with the natural environment.
