Each day in the English Village corresponds to a day in the year 1627. The colonists speak in 17th-century dialects, and discuss with their visitors all manner of topics that were relevant in 1627. They talk about their daily activities, and explain such things as what a pottage is, or how a duck or bluefish is cooked on the hearth. They also show visitors how cows and goats are milked, or how wattle and daub are applied to a house under construction. Depending on the season, one can see a garden planted, cornfields hoed, or the harvest brought in and stored. A householder might even take a few moments to talk about issues of land ownership, payment of debt, or even the colony's latest gossip. Each day in the Village is different and exciting and each colonist is an individual whose conversation is both intriguing and entertaining.

Plimouth Plantation also includes the Wampanoag Homesite and the replica Mayflower II.
