Our Field Trip to Philipsburg Manor

Today we visited Philipsburg Manor and learned about life long ago in the 18th Century.  We visited many stations there and learned many things.

At the Manor House we saw a bedroom and a kitchen.  We learned how butter is processed.

At the Activity Center we learned how wool is processed.

 At the mill we each had a chance to use a mortal and a pestle to grind some wheat. We saw the mill in operation.

At the barn we learned about many tools that were used on the farm.

Before we left we enjoyed lunch outside together.
