SUMMARY:Lecture – “Environmental Legacies: How the War of Independence Affected the Natural World in Predictable and Surprising Ways”
DESCRIPTION:Join Juniata College Professor Dave Hsiung for his presentation of how the revolutionary war impacted the natural world. Dr. David Hsiung is the Dr. Charles R. and Shirley A. Knox Professor of History at Juniata College\, where he has taught since earning his Ph.D. from the University of Michigan and his B.A. from Yale. A dedicated teacher and scholar\, he has received multiple honors for excellence in the classroom\, including Juniata’s Beachley Award for Distinguished Teaching and Pennsylvania’s “Professor of the Year” from the Carnegie Foundation. His research spans Appalachian history\, environmental perspectives on the American Revolution\, and interdisciplinary collaborations with students that bring history to life through hands-on experimentation and exploration. \nThe War of Independence affected the natural world in important and lasting ways. The lecture will examine deforestation at Valley Forge; raids that seized animals but also produced some surprisingly “positive” effects; and lead musket balls left on battlefields that may only now be poisoning the land. This talk offers not only new ways to think about the Revolution\, but also war and the environment today. \n\n\n\nRegister Here!

SUMMARY:Monthly Living History September 2025

The programs will take place on the 2nd Saturday of each month April – September. There is no admission or registration\, all you have to do is show up and be ready to learn something new! \n  \nSeptember’s program will feature Supplies! The Continental army was infamously short of supplies of all sorts\, food\, ammunition\, weapons\, etc. Learn about how various normally civilian trades and industries re-oriented themselves to supply the army during the war and see demonstrations of those trades in action.

SUMMARY:Farmstead Friday September 2025
DESCRIPTION:  \nJoin 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. 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 \nFor September our demonstrators will show how the harvest was preserved for use in the winter months\, through drying\, pickling salting\, etc. This was an important activity to ensure a steady food supply even after the growing season ended for the winter.
