In the 1850s, residents of Hunter’s Home made and preserved food for the holidays and to sustain themselves over the winter.
Interpreters at the former Murrell Home this week are sharing some of the popular recipes, and Site Director Sue Teska talked about the clothing women would wear during the winter. The event is Nov. 25-26 and 29, 9 a.m.-4:30 p.m.
