Question: Where in Florida can you visit the Dummett Sugar Mill Ruins?
Answer: Ormond Beach
The ruins of a once-thriving sugarcane plantation that was burned in the Second Seminole War can be found in Ormond Beach. In its heyday, the Dummett plantation cultivated some 2,000 acres of sugarcane to be distilled into rum. Built in 1825, it was the site of the first steam-powered cane-crushing mill, helping to bring the Industrial Revolution to the growing United States.
