The current mill building was built in 1913 to replace the old 1818 stone one. The complex includes a 20 foot wheelhouse and a 1904 20,000 bushel ironclad grain elevator.The mill property and related buildings were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984, including 14 contributing buildings and two contributing structures on 87 acres (35 ha). As of 2023, the water-powered mill has been operated as a family business since the 1860's by six generations of Weisenbergers. The mill produces flour, meal, feed and baking mixes which are shipped throughout the country. All of their grains are sourced locally, within 100 miles.
