Bring the entire family for a free living history day exploring 18th century agriculture and daily life in Orange County in 1774, featuring “hands-on” family friendly activities!
Sunday, May 19th
2:00 to 6:00pm
How did they farm? What tools did they use? What crops did local Native Americans grow?
Local farmers were about to be caught up in the storm of war!
Featuring reenactor artisan Scott Lance of At the Sign of the Adze, Axe and Chisel
Our volunteers and historical organizations will be on-site outdoors with hands-on activities and demonstrations from 4-6 PM at the Gen. John Hathorn house historic site for this free family-friendly event, thanks to the generosity of owners of The Old Stone House Inn.
