Join Polly on June 18th for a conversation about the antique quilts displayed in the Learning Centre this summer, how and why they were produced, and what we can learn about the people and the time period from these textiles.

What better way to celebrate the start of summer than to join the annual pumpkin planting days at Ross Farm Museum? Bring the children and let them plant a pumpkin seed, then they can return in the fall and harvest their pumpkin.
