Wintertime at the Cabin

It’s 30 degrees out, cold enough to freeze water in the horse trough. The fire in the hearth warms only a fraction of your log cabin. How do you, a pioneer homesteader, stay warm during the winter? What clothes do you wear? What do you eat? What do you do all day? During this drop-in program discover the answers to these questions as you cook over an open fire, learn about homespun textiles, make a candle and fashion a simple lantern. Dress for the weather—the cabin is cold! This program is designed specifically for ages 6 and up. Register at www.ParkPASS.org
