Can you keep a secret? This tour explores the Stockade through the writings of Harriet Mumford Paige, Schenectady's own version of Lady Whistledown. Living in the early 19th century, she was an ordinary woman with an extraordinary penchant for peddling rumors. Together we'll air out all of her neighbors' dirty laundry! Members are free. To register for free as a member please email office@schenectadyhistorical.org.

Wine Bottle Planters We love a good upcycle art project at the Mabee Farm! In this workshop we'll turn old wine bottles into new, self watering planters. We'll fill them up with rich, composted soil from the Mabee Farm and start you off with a homegrown herb seedling.
