In the 18th Century much of Bucks County was cultivated farmland, with a wide variety of activities required to keep them running. From Animal care, to structure maintenance, to harvesting and preserving, each of these programs at the Thompson-Neely Farmstead will cover a different set of tasks that would be performed on the farm, so that you can see and experience what life was like for many people in the years surrounding the Revolution

August’s program will have demonstrators shepherding our flock of sheep, including taking care of them, and also processing their wool into useable yarn that can be made into clothing and other useful items.

Join us the 4th Friday of each month from 11:00am – 3:00pm, this May to September to learn about life on the Thompson-Neely Farmstead:

• May 23 – 18th Century Farm Chores
• June 27 – 18th Century Home Life
• July 23 – Hay Making
• August 22 – Shepherding and Livestock
• September 26 – Preserving a Harvest
