MILTON - With the nation's 250th anniversary of its founding approaching next month, the New Hampshire Farm Museum is planning an extra special birthday party to celebrate the star-spangled celebration.

The day will give both children and adults the time to reflect on the meaning of our American freedoms, our responsibility to our continued independence, and remember those who fought and paid the ultimate price.
