History of THE shenandoah mill

The Shenandoah Mill in Gilbert, AZ, is an authentic grist mill that hails from Virginia. Purchased in 1997, it was meticulously relocated to its current site in Gilbert, where it was completed in 1999. The ownership of the mill has passed through the Swope family line to Doug Kiser, whose great-great grandfather, Leroy B. Custer, operated the mill until his death in 1926. This historic mill attracted customers from far and wide, thanks to the high-quality white flour it produced.


Originally, the mill stood four stories tall, with its first floor constructed of solid stone. In the 1920s, Leroy's sons began using a roller mill that produced a finer, whiter flour compared to the traditional stone grinders. The name "American (Midget) Marvel" can still be seen on the front of the roller mill, which is now showcased behind the Shenandoah Mill in the Enchanted Garden.


A system of wooden chutes funneled grain down to the millstones, while another set of chutes, featuring cupped belts, lifted flour back to the upper floors. This flour would then pass through bolting or sifting equipment before being stored in bags or bins. Known in recent history as the Muddy Creek Roller Mill, it produced "Custer's Best" flour until a flood in 1942 caused significant damage.


The rustic charm and elegance of the Shenandoah Mill in Gilbert make it the perfect venue for your event. Outdoors, the romantic lush green garden under the unique arbor provides an ideal setting for your ceremony. Inside, you can enjoy the authentic wood beams and the original charm of the old mill, making it a picturesque backdrop for your special day.
