Pandemic puts strain on Meridian Historical Village Follow Us Question of the Day By RACHEL GRECO - Associated Press - Sunday, March 7, 2021 MERIDIAN TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) - Every year thousands of school children visit the collection of century-old buildings at the Meridian Historical Village. The student tours of the Okemos property’s farmhouse and general store and lessons inside its one-room schoolhouse help Friends of Historic Meridian, the nonprofit that maintains the village, fulfill its mission: to create and sustain an active appreciation of history. They also account for 90% of the village’s revenue. The money is used to help maintain the property’s seven aging buildings and its chapel, all located off Marsh Road in Meridian Township’s Central Park.
