Abigail's Garden: Plant, Gather, and Grow

Enter the world of Abigail Adams and the remarkable women of the Revolutionary America, where gardens nourished both households and the spirt of liberty.

Combining first person historical portrayal with an engaging visual presentation, Carol Cohen explores how women cultivated herbs, vegetables, knowledge and community during the years leading to the American Revolution.

Through letters, shared recipes, spinning gatherings, and garden exchanges, women preserved traditions, supported their families, and quietly spread the ideas that helped shaped a nation.

Venue: 13 Parkman Street, Westborough, MA 01581

The program is free and open to all.
