Description

Discover how gardens were an important source of food, medicine, and recreation at the Lee-Fendall House! The Lee-Fendall House Museum welcomes homeschoolers for Homeschool Day on Friday, April 23! Our theme this spring will focus on the history of gardens as a source of food, medicine, and recreation. Learn how herbs were used to treat various ailments as well as flavor food. Activities will be taking place outdoors. Optional tours of the house will be offered every hour starting at 10:00 AM with the last tour starting at 3:00 PM. Due to ongoing health concerns, we will be limiting the number of people allowed in the house and on the grounds at one time so please register for a specific tour time in advance. Face masks will be required and we will be practicing social distancing. Adults (18+) are $3, students (3-17) are $5, and children under 3 are free. Advance registration is required. PARKING: There is a small parking lot at the front of the house and free street parking on Oronoco Street.
