The Dexter Grist Mill was built in 1646. It is still a working mill that grinds corn. It is a very small mill that is located in the beautiful historic part of Sandwich right on Shawme Pond. The admission is very inexpensive. You can go in and watch them grind the corn. You can also buy a very nice cloth bag full of fresh ground corn to cook with. It is very relaxing to be in this part of town. The people who work at the mill have told us cool stories about the history of the mill.
