The Roberts Farm Historic and Archeological District (also known as the Theus-Roberts Farm) is a U.S. historic district (designated as such on November 2, 1995) located in Tallahassee, Florida. The district is on Roberts Road, 1-mile (2 km) east of Centerville Road.

History

The Roberts Farm was founded in 1803 by the Roberts family as a crop and dairy farm.[2]

Current Day

The farm is currently in the process of being re-conserved by two sisters, one of which has been living in the family house and the other is in the process of building a tiny house.

They have goats, horses, fowl, and farm dogs and have been renting off plots of land for gardens.
