Pottsgrove Manor’s staff and volunteers will demonstrate some of the ways apples were used in colonial days. Learn how apples would be made into both sweet and hard cider, and try working the cider press. Watch the colonial cooks as they make historic apple recipes. Young visitors can make themed crafts to take home.
There is a suggested donation of $2.00 per person for this program. The manor house will be open for guided tours on the hour of the site’s current exhibit, “Potts and Family: Colonial Consumers,” and visitors are welcome to shop in the museum store.
