The 2nd Annual Heritage Harvest Fescht
will be held Saturday and Sunday, 14-15 October 2006, at the
Pennsylvania German Cultural Heritage Center located at 22
Luckenbill Road, Kutztown.
Authentic crafts,
folk life demonstrations, live music, farm animals and good food
will be part of the weekends activities.
Some of the
educational demonstrations included hearth cooking, spinning,
felting and domestic activities.
Several historic
buildings will be opened for tours as well. The Farm House Museum,
built in the early 19th century with local limestone, was just one
of the edifices open for perusing. The 130-year-old Freyberger
School, an authentically restored one room schoolhouse, will feature
different activities associated with attending a one room school. A
rebuilt 18th century log cabin houses a collection of antique
carpenters' tools and the other log house is still under
construction.
