Please provide feedback regarding the Bost Grist Millfield trip. I am
looking at a Friday... Does October 17th look good to everyone? Is
there another conflict on that date? If so I will be happy to switch
to another time.
Bost Grist Mill is an original working mill dating back to the early
1800's. The mill is restored and does education tours explaining how
food was farmed and processed during the early days.
Children will get hands on opportunities to shell an ear of corn in
the original way, and see how corn becomes cornmeal. Please see the
web site for more detailed information about this interesting
historical site.
We would hope to set up a tour around 10:00.. on a Friday.
Cost depends on how many people attend. I am hoping for 20
participants. 1-10 10.00 each
11-15 9.00
16-24 8.00
25-50 7.00
51 -up 6.00
All people participating in the tour pay. This is because it is open
by appointment only and they have a need to pay the staff and costs
of opening.
There is also offered a class on making a corn husk doll for 3.00 per
child.
There are picnic areas so weather permitting we would pack a picnic
lunch.
