We’re cooking up something for everyone this fall and you can join the fun! Open hearth cooking expert Becky Hendricks offers three “second Saturday” programs in the historic Strong-Howard House this fall. Participants prepare sumptuous dishes over an open fire and in the bake oven under Becky’s experienced tutelage, then sample each other’s creations and take home their leftovers. Learning never tasted so good!

Sign up now as programs fill very quickly. Preregistration is required. Each program is limited to 6 participants. Ages 12 and up. Max 2 participants per family. (Note: your registration date determines the order in which you get to pick amongst the selected dishes, so register early!) Cost for programs: $65 per person plus estimated $10-15 food costs.

Saturday, September 9, 11 AM to 4 PM, Historic Foodways from the Colonial Garden.
Explore historic garden bounties while working with foodways expert Becky Hendricks over an outdoor
fire! Selections include cabbage sallet, parsnip fritters, Pepy’s sallet of cold roast chicken, and more.
