The Historic Haile Homestead at Kanapaha Plantation is owned by the Alachua Conservation Trust (ACT), Gainesville, FL, and the Haile family trust. A one-half interest in the house and 40 acres of surrounding land were donated to ACT in 1996 by members of the Haile Family. The family retains ownership of the remaining one-half interest, but has granted a long-term lease of this interest to ACT.

The Historic Haile Homestead, Inc. (HHH) was established as a not-for-profit corporation to market and raise funds for the House. View the HHH By-Laws.

ACT and HHH intent is to maintain the Homestead as a historic house museum, interpreting Florida plantation life through the architecture and history of the House and site. The museum's mission is to educate residents and visitors about the economic, cultural, and social issues interwoven into life in this setting.

The Historic Haile Homestead is funded in part by the Alachua County Tourist Development Tax. Please visit visitgainesville.net for more information.
