Saucon Valley Girl Scouts, dressed in vintage clothing, from Ambassador Troop 8948, Senior Troop 8480 and Cadette Troop 8505 will take visitors on a “Journey through Time ~ Room by Room” at the historic Heller Homestead.  Rooms with period furnishings will offer guests a chance to experience the past as they step back in time to see treasures from a bygone era.  The Widow’s House has three rooms to view representing the 1850s through the 1900s and features a beehive oven in the
kitchen.  The Heller House offers a 1950s Kitchen, a 1930s Living Room, a 1900s Bedroom, and a 1880s Victorian Parlor. Decorated Christmas trees will be on display reflecting the progression of ornamentation
available to German families throughout the years.

Join us as we celebrate another great year at the historic Heller Homestead.
