The Burnside Plantation, also as the James Burnside Plantation and Lerch Farm, is a historic 6.5-acre property on Schoenersville Road in Bethlehem that is home to a pristine plantation, beautifully manicured gardens, and grounds, and a Colonial mansion. The Burnside farmhouse offers visitors an insight into farming life in the Moravian community in the 18th and 19th centuries and features a summer kitchen in which colonial cooking demonstrations can be enjoyed, followed by lunch in one of the well-preserved barns. Visitors can tour the farmhouse and the barns, and a variety of events, historic tours, volunteer projects, and festivals are held at the plantation throughout the year.
