The Gardner-Rogers Homestead Featured at Open House

Past event
Oct 7, 2018, 2 to 4 PM

The Middletown Springs Historical Society will host an open discussion about The Homestead at the Museum Open House on Sunday, October 7, 2-4 pm, with slides from the Rogers family album, old postcards, brochures and rate cards, with special guests Helen, Richard, and Jean Rogers. Please bring pictures, stories, and memories to share!

The historic 1791 Gardner farm on North St. became "Englewood on the Hill" in 1900 when Asa & Lillian Gardner began taking in summer guests. The Gardner's daughter, Jesse, and her husband, Frank Rogers, took over the business in the mid-1930s and changed the name to "Gardner's" and eventually the "Gardner-Rogers Homestead". They employed many local people.

Refreshments will be served. Come enjoy the event and the museum! Both are free and handicapped accessible. For more information call 235-2421 or 235-2376.
