Event Details
Experience a bit of what it was like to live in 1790’s Western Pennsylvania! Learn about the indigenous people who lived in this area, how they survived and used plants in their everyday lives. A tour of the 1790’s Walker-Ewing-Glass Log House will inform you about daily life for early American settlers. After a few chores like weeding the garden, doing laundry and fetching water, we’ll enjoy a screen-free day by playing games and making crafts that were popular 230 years ago.
