Bidwell House Pumpkin Fest
MONTEREY, Mass. - The Third Annual Pumpkin Fest and Heirloom Garden Harvest will be held as a free family event at the Bidwell House Museum on Saturday, October 10, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.. Hosted by the Garden Angels, volunteers who maintain the flower and heritage vegetable gardens under the direction of Ruth Green, the event promises fun for the entire family. Featured activities include tastings of pumpkin recipes, Icelandic pony rides, games, and face painting.
Youngsters will be provided with materials for decorating a pumpkin and will be invited to take their decorated pumpkin home to help celebrate the fall foliage season. The grounds as always will be open for walks and exploration. The ongoing exhibit in the red barn, Early Farm and Garden Tools, curated by Chris Caccamo, will be open to the public free of charge.

Annual Meeting House Trail Walk
A Columbus Day closing event will be held at the Bidwell House on Monday, October 12, at 10 a.m.. Geroge Emmons, local historian, author, and trustee of the museum, will lead a walk to the historic first meeting house where the Reverend Adonijah Bidwell preached sermons, still held in the original form in the Bidwell archives. In 1928, the Daughters of the American Revolution (D.A.R.) placed a marker commemorating the site which was once the demographic center of Tyringham and Monterey in the mid-eighteenth century.
In observation of October as the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Archaeology Month, George Emmons will lead visitors to nearby indian cairns on the property and answer questions related to other carins in southern Berkshire County.
Please bring walking shoes and water for this 1 1/2 hour walk. On returning to the museum, visitors are invited to join the museum board and staff for refreshments in celebration of the Reverend Bidwell's birthday. Donations $10 Members; $15 Non-members will be accepted. Call 413-528-6888 for more information. |
