Moonshine Hill Farm

Moonshine Hill, Buckland is southeast of the center of Buckland and has an elevation of 1440 feet. Of its naming, nothing definitely is known. Moonshine was an old local name for the little flower known as "life everlasting" growing so abundantly in many pastures and on hillsides. The name probably came from the plant. In a few old deeds the name of "Sugar Hill" appears and the description of the lands seem to fit those near Moonshine Hill. It is second in elevation to Hog Mountain at 1680 feet in the west part of Buckland.
