Cooking over a fire connects us with our ancestors in a very tasty way! Using traditional campfire cooking methods like roasting, coal stacking, and cast iron we’ll cook up some pumpkins just like people would have done 250 years ago. While the pumpkins are roasting, we’ll learn about the history of Marcellus and Baltimore Woods, ponder how life was different back then, and how we can still see evidence of their lifestyles on the landscape today. Then, we’ll eat!

This program is designed for ages 5 and up. Space is limited. Online pre-registration is required. This program will take place outside of our log cabin, on flat grass with benches and picnic tables. Young children must be supervised by their parents around the fire at all times.
