Welcome to the Terrace Mill Foundation! Established as a nonprofit organization in March 1979, our mission is rooted in the restoration and preservation of the historic mill and its surrounding property. Since acquiring the property from Chippewa Falls Township, our first milestone was achieving its inclusion on the National Register of Historic Places.

Today, we continue to honor our commitment by securing vital support for preservation and restoration efforts. With a deep dedication to honoring the past, the Terrace Mill Foundation strives to provide a place to share the history, culture and arts of Terrace MN
