The Mullica Hill library will host a lecture by historian Lesley Parness on Sunday, Oct. 13, at 1:30 p.m.
The lecture will focus on the daily lives of New Jersey’s Colonial women and their kitchen gardens, which played a crucial role in feeding, healing and clothing early-American families in the 1700s. The 18th-century “huswife” was skilled in a wide range of essential tasks, including the making of wool, hemp and flax, as well as diaries, brewing, baking and gardening.
This program is available both in person and via Zoom. Registration is required for either format at Register online.
