MAP & PROGRAM GUIDE

FROM FIELD TO FORK, WE

SHARE THE STORIES OF

AMERICA’S RICH FOOD

CULTURE IN THE ABUNDANT

SEASON OF AUTUMN.

During Fall Flavor Weekends, learn how authentic seasonal recipes are made from freshly harvested ingredients in our historic homes. Shop the Farmers Market on Saturdays to connect with local farmers, vendors and craft makers. Savor authentically American meals at A Taste of History® and Eagle Tavern restaurants, where menus are inspired by our living history programs. Pop into the Village Store at the end of your visit for a complimentary tasting of Greenfield Village’s specialty foods, like Hobo Bread.

Fall Flavor Weekends showcase the harvest season through stories and demonstrations. Along with cooking presentations in eight historic homes, visit with farmers in the Firestone Farm fields as they plow with steam and horses, thresh grains and toil in the apple orchards. Learn about food preservation at Firestone Farm, where the ladies are making sauerkraut and apple butter. Stop by the 1760 Daggett Farmhouse to learn how American colonists brewed beer.

Get inspired by our American foodways to create new traditions in your own home.

One of the most deeply rooted ways of understanding American history is through food. In Greenfield Village, we share over 300 years of food stories, from the sowing of seeds to the setting of tables.
