Dexter’s Grist Mill
What the experts agree on
A working 1654 mill beside Shawme Pond that still grinds organic cornmeal using original water-powered gears—350 years of Cape Cod history you can actually buy and take home.
“The restored mill on the edge of Shawme Pond dates to 1654 and has centuries-old gears that still grind cornmeal (available to buy).”

"Also dating from the 17th century, the adjacent water-powered Dexter Grist Mill still turns out delicious stone-ground (organic) cornmeal, which can be purchased on site"
