This weekend we will be demonstrating ploughing techniques. Enjoy demonstrations of basket weaving, straw braiding, flax processing, open-hearth cooking, barrel making, and more. Plan to stay all day and enjoy some musical entertainment as you get ready to take part in a fun auction for everyone in the afternoon. While in the area, take in the annual Harvest Sale at the Forties Community Center and the Turkey Dinner at the Community School, 11am to 6pm. Community festival with concerts, tree lighting, craft fairs and more.
Classes can book by calling the museum.
Sleigh Rides will be available weather permitting. Pack a lunch and bring the family for a fun filled day. These workshops can be adapted for grade levels P-6. A general tour is offered with school groups able to view the entire site. Not only are the children getting a hands on experience in a 19 TH century setting, but they are learning practical things needed in everyday life.
