The Asbury Grist Mill forms much of the early industrial character of the Franklin Township, Village of Asbury.  Since the mill's construction along the Musconetcong River circa 1865-1867 as a gristmill, the building has characterized the early industrial might of New Jersey with its use of water wheel, and later, turbine to power the early machines of industry.

​The Musconetcong Watershed Association (MWA) is committed to preserving the Asbury Mill and to raising public awareness of the rich social, agricultural and industrial heritage of the area.

MWA is hosting a silent auction to benefit the continued restoration of the Asbury Mill and are looking for items for donors to bid on. Because of the pandemic, we are having an online auction rather than an in person event. The auction will be held from December 1-18, 2020. Those local to the area will also get a chance to tour the current progress of the Mill.
