Harvest Festivals – Celebrations and Symbols

Past event
Nov 13, 2023, 7 to 8:30 PM

Colchester Historical Society
Free parking and admission

Across time and from many places, people have celebrated the end of the growing season. The celebrations share similarities that highlight the multicultural nature of harvest festivals. Join the Colchester Historical Society and presenter Michelle Penca to learn about the cultivation of thankfulness and gratitude from New England traditions and those of other places. Sample some old-fashioned treats, make a leaf for a gratitude tree, and take home some ideas that you can use in your family's next harvest celebration. Refreshments will follow the program.

If you'd like a free tour of our historic Parsonage building, please arrive at 6 p.m.
