Spring is here! The Polks probably looked forward to Spring just as we do today. Planting the fields and gardens is well underway and soon the new crops will be coming in so now is the time to clean out the larder! The larder is a cupboard or cabinet that was used to store preserved food and food items. Some families may have had a spring house where cold items could be kept or a cellar for root vegetables We will make fresh bread to serve with the jams, empty out the pickle jars and enjoy the pickled eggs, beets, okra, asparagus and onions, cook up the last of the salted pork with the remaining sauerkraut, and make a pumpkin pudding with the last of the winter squash. Come by and check out the goodies hiding in the larder. (Historic foods are not for public consumption but for educational demonstrations.)
Admission is FREE, however donations are greatly appreciated.
