Saturday, September 5, 10:00 a.m. – Up To Our Ears! A Hands On Corn Harvest


Help us harvest! Plimoth Plantation’s colonial interpretation staff has planted a corn crop in mud and rotten fish, scared crows and woodchucks away from the seedlings, hilled the stalks in summer heat and driving rain, battled earworms, squirrels and turkeys, then pulled and hoed more weeds than could ever be counted… Now, the corn is finally ready to harvest!  Roll up your sleeves and please join the English colonists in the English Village to assist bringing in the 2009 crop of corn!  This fully-immersive, hands-on program and is suitable for anyone aged 5 and up. Harvest the crops and take home a bushel of agricultural knowledge!  For more information, log on to www.plimoth.org.
