Sowing the Seeds of Victory
April 22, 2017 @ 11:00 am - 4:00 pm
Learn and help plant a WWI Victory Garden!
Since the Board of Education has no allowed students to plant on Brickyard Educational Farm’s land, we are pleased to promote the Agricultural History Farm Park to learn how Montgomery County’s farms and communities worked together to support the war effort during World War I.
Enjoy living history demonstrations featuring costumed WWI re-enactors; hands-on farm skills demonstrations; music and food from the early 20th century; WWI era farm equipment exhibition/demonstration; historic farm animals; and tours of the historic Magruder-Bussard Farmstead.
Explore the Farm Park’s new Heritage Demonstration Garden where you can learn about and help plant a WWI Victory Garden. http://www.montgomeryparks.org/events/sowing-the-seeds-of-victory/
