Grades 3-8: A Visit to the More House


New York State Historical Association and The Farmers' Museum

What was Thanksgiving like 150 years ago and how was the food prepared? In this engaging program students will visit The More family kitchen at The Farmers’ Museum in Cooperstown, New York, and speak with Mrs. More as she cooks over an open hearth fire using cranes and trammels, and tools from the 19th century. Students will learn about where food came from, how it was prepared, and how harvest celebrations developed into the Thanksgiving celebration we experience today.
