Woodbridge Historical Society Hosts Open House

The Amity and Woodbridge Historical Society will host a joint open house event with Massaro Farm at the Thomas Darling House on Sunday July 17 from 2 to 4 PM. We will have demonstrations of “cold hearth” cooking as we make butter and fresh ice cream with locally grown ingredients. This event will celebrate Massaro Farm's Centennial with an exhibition of Massaro family historical documents, photos and authentic farm tools. We will also be highlighting our kitchen herb garden through an essential oils workshop on the porch at 3 PM where you can learn about every day uses for common essential oils. Our horse barn, which houses a large collection of antique tools will also be open. Please join us for this fun-filled afternoon to celebrate historic Woodbridge farming. As usual attending the open house is free and open to the public. There will be a suggested $8 donation to take part in the workshop and you will take home a natural bug repellent for your garden. The Thomas Darling House is located at 1907 Litchfield Turnpike in Woodbridge CT. For more information, please visitwww.woodbridgehistory.org.
