Stringco is a local non-profit organization in Tallahassee, FL that is dedicated to preserving and sharing the history of the Historic Haile Homestead at Kanapaha Plantation in Gainesville. The Homestead, built in 1854 by 56 enslaved laborers, is known for its unique Talking Walls, which contain over 12,500 words written by the Haile family. Visitors can explore this frozen gem of history and learn about the stories of the enslaved laborers and freedmen through guided tours and exhibits at the Allen and Ethel Graham Visitors Center and Museum.
Stringco invites individuals to become volunteers and help in telling the true stories of the Homestead. By committing to lead tours, attending meetings, and assisting with events, volunteers can be part of something bigger than themselves and contribute to the preservation of this important historical site. With its dedication to education and the preservation of history, Stringco offers visitors a unique opportunity to learn about the joys and sorrows of life over a century ago.
