Culture

Somerset is an area rich in history,
arts, entertainment and agriculture.

From our art houses to our rolling fields, our paintbrushes to our barn quilts, our guitars to our plows, Somerset is strongly rooted in and connected to the land and the experience of working it. Planting, cultivating, harvesting; Somerset is a place where ideas and dreams come to grow!
