Secret Stockade Saturdays

The Stockade and its secrets come to life on this behind-the-scenes journey through the  neighborhood. Join us for a morning of mysteries as our guides lead us from the museum, through the Stockade, and inside two Stockade homes, each with their own legends and lore. Refreshments will be served inside the Stockade's oldest home, the historic Brouwer House. This tour lasts three hours.

Mabee Farm to Fork

The Schenectady County Historical Society and the Electric City Food Co-op are teaming up once again to present Mabee Farm to Fork, a celebration of local foods! Join us for a pastoral evening in the Barn at Mabee Farm, as we celebrate the farm-to-table tradition. Our four-course meal features locally-grown foods served alongside craft beverages, live music by the Arch Stanton Quartet, silent auction and raffle with great prizes, and farm demonstrations. We're even sourcing ingredients from Mabee Farm’s own fields, and baking our special Mabee rye bread!
