Second Saturday "Harvest to Hearth: Thanksgiving in 1850s" Waterford"

With a focus on the Thanksgiving holiday and what that meant for our mid-19th-century Waterford ancestors:  food, family, gratitude for what we have, remembering those who are gone, and charity for those who have less than we do.

Take turns at the cider presses at Stacy Barn! Tour historic buildings. Watch the blacksmiths at the forge. Free and family friendly. Fun for the entire family.
