My brother and I are planing to visit Greenfield Village soon, how long would it take to cover the whole area? We plan on being there for a week.

Do that and the museum also. Take at least 2 days and don't be rushed, you will see much more than someone racing through. We found a relatives house preserved there and toured inside, what a find!

I looked at their website after reading the Henry Ford Museum thread and found it really interesting. It's now on my list of places to visit next time I venture across the Atlantic. I'd never heard of it before and it shows that when topics veer off being 100% 'Model A' it does not mean that they are not informative and useful.

Don't go to soon.
It's closed from January 1st until April 14th.

Something special going on now, or is this the same for every year?

They close for winter.

The museum is open year around. They have the hoods open on about 50 of the cars in the museum thru February 28.
