The Slusser-Ryan Farm is a historic farm at 2028 Mount Tabor Road in rural Montgomery County, Virginia, about 4 miles (6.4 km) northeast of Blacksburg. The main farm complex includes a house whose core elements are log structures built beginning in 1855, and later enlarged with frame structures. It has a variety of well-preserved exterior and interior 19th-century finishes that are stylistically eclectic. Outbuildings include a 19th-century pumphouse and privy, and there is a small 19th-century coal mine on the property. The latter was probably used by the farm's owners for local use.[2]
The farm was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2017.[1]
