Step back in time with this hands-on activity exploring the fascinating world of 18th-century herbs and home remedies! Stop by the Senate House grounds on Friday, August 1, from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. to discover how early Americans utilized common garden herbs for healing and everyday health, long before the advent of modern medicine. Visitors will have the opportunity to smell, touch, and learn about herbs such as lavender, mint, rosemary, and chamomile – plants that were often used in colonial kitchens and apothecaries. This family-friendly drop-in activity is free and weather-dependent.
