VOLUNTEERS WEEKEND

The museum's opening weekend of 2025 was dedicated to our volunteers - both the existing volunteers and future ones. Volunteers demonstrated many and varied crafts. The bread team made brown bread and many visitors took a loaf home with them. New volunteers signed up and we look forward to working with them.
