Join us for our final special event of the season and witness traditional harvest activities from the period of 1892-1930.

Other historical activities include flower and herb drying, feather stripping, making kapusta (sour cabbage), grinding wheat, quilting, and canning of produce from the museum’s heritage gardens.
