The Moffatt-Ladd House and Garden will host our 2nd Biennial “Harvesting History” fall festival on our grounds, October 12 from 11 am to 3 pm. This free festival will celebrate autumn with fun family activities like pumpkin decorating, self-guided tours featuring life in a historic house, and presentations on a wide range of topics including furniture restoration, garden, and tree care, essential oils, hearth cooking, and more!
