Heritage Day April 25th


The Second Annual Heritage Day was held at the museum and living history farm site.  The Louisa Herb Guild was well represented with Tina and Bea at our table.  They helped explain the guild and herbs and had 12 folks sign up interested in the herb guild! Welcome folks.
Thanks Tina so much for the tent too!  It was really nice when the rains came which didn't deter alot of folks in having fun.  The Louisa County Historical Society and Parks and Recreation sponsors this event--the last Sat in April mark your calendars for next year!
