A National Historic Landmark, the Pearl S. Buck House provides guided tours and special events on a picturesque 68-acre estate in the bucolic countryside where Pearl Buck spent more than 30 years of her life. As a member of the NAACP and the first to create an adoption agency for bi-racial children, Pearl Buck was a leader in the fight against discrimination. Alongside longtime friend Eleanor Roosevelt, she was also a leading women's rights advocate. Today, the Pearl S. Buck International organization still celebrates her mission by providing programs on multiculturalism, race, and gender. Visitors can enjoy the gift shop, cultural center, beautiful gardens and seasonal special exhibits.
