​Gather your holiday spirit and get your taste buds ready…Historic Christmas Food for Thought returns on Saturday, December 15, 2018 from 10:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m.  Experience a Country Christmas at the William Harris Homestead and enjoy Clarissa Clifton, our open-fire pit cooking historian, who will be preparing popular dishes from the nineteenth century using methods, implements, and recipes handed down to her by her ancestors.

Docents, dressed in the style of the day, will also be on hand to talk about customs and traditions of Christmases past. Other highlights include the opportunity to make corn husk dolls or Christmas ornaments using natural supplies from the Harris woods and farm.
