It was founded in 1999 with the mission to preserve and promote the historic Bear's Mill, a four-story wooden grist mill built in 1849. The mill is considered an important part of the community's history and heritage, and the Friends of Bear's Mill work to ensure its preservation for future generations.

The organization is run by a board of directors and relies heavily on volunteers to help with events, tours, and maintenance of the mill. They offer guided tours of the mill and an art gallery featuring local artists, as well as hosting events such as the annual fall festival and art show.
