WELCOME TO
The
BINFORD HOUSE

Inspiring the history-makers of tomorrow
by carrying forth the legacy of the
Binford Family.

Our Story
Built in 1874 in Marshalltown, Iowa, the Binford House is a historic nonprofit property preserved and cared for by the Marshalltown Federation of Women’s Clubs and supported by local volunteers. Once a private residence for the Binford family rooted in a strong tradition of community service and civic involvement, the home was later gifted by Jessie Binford so it could continue serving the community. Today, the Binford House remains a welcoming historic landmark and community gathering place, offering educational programs, meetings, special events, and private rentals.
Our Mission
We steward the resources entrusted in us in support of Marshall County, Iowa community organizations.
The History
The Binford House was built by Thaddeus and Angelica Binford, it honors the family’s legacy of community service and their daughter Jessie Binford’s work supporting women and children.
