A Day in the Life of an 18th Century Servant

  • Sweat-Morin Homestead 374 School Street Sanford, ME, 04073 United States (map)

This program will help participants understand the nature of daily life among the servants who worked for the more ‘upper crust’ population of our area. You’ll prepare food or do kitchen chores such as making butter, nipping sugar, and making pickles. Additional activities will include working with textile weaving and spinning, playing colonial games, exploring English country dancing, and engaging in other typical 18th century activities.
