An upcoming Old Sturbridge Village Garden Thyme program, to be held Saturday, August 19 at 10:00 am, is a members only event and should encourage our readers to join the organization now, in order to attend this fascinating lecture on Root Cellars, Then and Now. The root cellar was an integral part of the 19th century home that is making a comeback in the 21st century. Learn how root cellars work and some suggestions to bring modern equivalents into your home to preserve your garden harvest.
Garden Thyme programs are held on the third Saturday of each month and are FREE for members of Old Sturbridge Village. Led by Village horticultural and agricultural staff, these programs and workshops are held at various sites and deal with a variety of plant-related themes and topics. Participants gather at the Visitor Center and are led to the appropriate setting. Membership begins at $65 annually, and you may learn more at https://www.osv.org/members
