Ice Harvest Festival
Ice Harvest Festival
Sunday, February 19 from 11 am -3 pm.
This historic event will take place at Arrow Park located at 1061 Orange County Turnpike in Monroe, NY. Hosted by Museum Village and Arrow Park, this event will also have representation from the Orange County Council of Arts, local artists, and local farmers. By demonstrating such early technologies, in this case hand tool harvesting and wooden sled transport, Museum Village hopes to demonstrate for young minds and recall to older ones how rural America lived off the land. Storytelling will be integral to the day as will the opportunity to share information about other winter traditions on the farm like cold cellars, root vegetables, jam and jelly making, canning and seed catalogue perusing. Participants will gather in the heated pavilion on the grounds. There will be food, hot drink, children’s nature activities and entertainment. Admission is $5 per person to cover the cost of the event. For further information contact: Michael Sosler, Museum Village, at [email protected] or (845) 782-8248 X28.
