A special day of thanks has been part of the American tradition since 1621. The Miller-Cory House Museum cooks demonstrate the preparation of an early American Thanksgiving feast over the museum’s open-hearth fire, using colonial recipes and seasonal ingredients.

Please note that this is a demonstration only; dinner is not being served. Proper colonial dining also requires proper table customs. The program includes a presentation on authentic early American manners, place settings, and other interesting “table top traditions.” 

Docents are available to give tours of the fully furnished colonial era farmhouse.
