    Grey Roots Museum & Archives offers visitors an informative look into the history of Grey County. The museum features various exhibits that showcase the region's heritage, from early settlers to more recent developments. Visitors often appreciate the well-curated displays and interactive elements that bring local history to life. The on-site Moreston Heritage Village, a recreated 19th-century village, is particularly popular, allowing guests to experience what life was like in the past. While many find the museum engaging and educational, some visitors note that the content can be somewhat limited and may not appeal to those without a specific interest in local history. The staff is generally described as friendly and knowledgeable, enhancing the overall experience. However, some visitors mention that certain areas of the museum could benefit from updates or more in-depth information. Despite these minor drawbacks, the museum provides a solid overview of Grey County's history and culture, making it a worthwhile stop for those interested in learning about the area's past.
