SUMMARY:Brewing Massachusetts: How Beer Shaped the Bay State
DESCRIPTION:We are proud to introduce our most ambitious exhibit ever\, titled “Brewing Massachusetts: How Beer Shaped the Bay State\,” made possible by a grant from Massachusetts 250 and the Massachusetts Office of Travel & Tourism (MOTT). Through rare artifacts\, photographs\, and documents\, this exhibit will tell the story of Massachusetts brewers from the Pilgrims to the present. This exhibit will be held in a rebuilt Revolutionary era tavern and tickets will be $5. Come see it starting May 30th at 107 Old Main Street in Deerfield at the Indian House Memorial.\nNo state has been more impacted by brewing than Massachusetts. But this story hasn’t been told in one place\, until now. “Brewing Massachusetts” will be open during the 250th anniversary of 1776\, a landmark nationwide event that will shine a spotlight on American history. We want to incorporate the entire state in our celebration of the History of Brewing\, and what better way than to include all of Massachusetts.

SUMMARY:America's Food at 250!
DESCRIPTION:America’s Food at 250: \nWhat is the state of American food on its 250th birthday? In this talk we’ll look at all the flavors\, dishes and cooks that got us here\, from the Indigenous ingredients that shape regional American cuisine\, to the influence of the African kitchen\, to the fast food revolution. \nAbout the Speaker: \nSarah Lohman is originally from Hinckley\, Ohio where she began working in a museum at the age of 16\, cooking historical food over a wood-burning stove. She graduated with a BFA from the Cleveland Institute of Art in 2005. For her undergraduate thesis\, she opened a temporary restaurant/installation that reinterpreted food of the Colonial era for a modern audience. Lohman moved to New York City in 2006 and worked as Video Producer for New York magazine’s food blog\, Grub Street. She chronicled her personal explorations in culinary history on her blog\, Four Pounds Flour\, from 2008-2018.  \nLohman’s most recent book Endangered Eating: America’s Vanishing Foods\, was released by W.W. Norton & Co. in October  2023. The book is a New York Times Editors’ Choice and was named one of the Best Books of 2023 by Amazon\, Food & Wine\, and Adam Gopnik on the Milk Street podcast. Lohman’s first book\, Eight Flavors: The Untold Story of American Cuisine\, was released by Simon & Schuster in December 2016. An Amazon bestseller\, the Atlantic called it “Richly researched\, intriguing\, and cleverly written.” Eight Flavors  is currently taught in undergraduate classes at Purdue and Pennsylvania State University. Her third book\, Ice Cream Land\, will be released Summer 2027.  \nOver her career\, Lohman’s work has been featured in The New York Times\, The Wall Street Journal\, The Washington Post\, as well as on All Things Considered\, CNN\, Gimlet Media\, and NHK Japan. She has appeared in PBS’s American Experience\, The Cooking Channel’s Food: Fact or Fiction\, and developed a historical food service for Taylor Mac’s a 24-Decade History of Popular Music.  \nLohman works with institutions around the country to create public programs focused on food. She has lectured at diverse institutions including the Lower East Side Tenement Museum\, Museum of Science (Boston)\, the Smithsonian Museum of American History\, and the Culinary Historians of Southern California.

SUMMARY:New England Sweets with Susan Mara Bregman
DESCRIPTION:A chocolate mill opened in Boston in the late 1700s\, setting the stage for New England’s enduring love affair with sweets. Over the following centuries\, the region has become home to an extraordinary variety of baked\, fried\, dipped\, sugared\, and frozen confections. Massachusetts gave us candy classics like Necco Wafers\, Sky Bars\, and Junior Mints.  From Fluffernutters to whoopie pies\, Susan Mara Bregman explores this sugary legacy\, uncovering the stories behind the treats that sweetened New England’s culinary landscape.  \nThe event is co-sponsored by Langley-Adams Library and Nichols Village.  The program will be in the auditorium at Nichols Village\, 1 Nichols Way\, Groveland\, MA.  Enter through the auditorium\, not the main entrance. \nThis program is part of the Revolutionary Library Crawl. Information on the Revolutionary Library Crawl available here:\nhttps://hwlibrary.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Revolutionary-Library-Crawl-Passport.pdf \nBregman is the author of the following books:  New England Neon\, New England Candlepin Bowling and Along Route 1: Maine\, New Hampshire\, and Massachusetts.

SUMMARY:In Support of the Army: How the Massachusetts Housewives supported the Continental Troops
DESCRIPTION:It is often said that the army marches on its stomach and it’s just as true during the 18th century as it is today. But how was the army supplied with that food? How was it cooked/processed? And what ways did the food that housewives cooked/processed/preserved in their homes support the Continental Army as it grew from local militia groups at the Battle of Bunker Hill to a full army under General George Washington?\nFoodways historian Stacy Booth will discuss not only how the housewives of Massachusetts provisioned the army in the early years of the Revolutionary War but also how they used food and cooking as ways to protest taxation and the political policies that fanned the flames of a revolution. \nBiography\nStacy Booth is a foodways historian with almost 20 years of experience reenacting and presenting to the public. She specializes in 17th and 18th century New England foodways presentations and cooking demonstrations.\nShe also runs her business\, Forgotten Recipes (forgotten-recipes.com)\, where she has presented\, cooked at or set up displays for libraries\, museums and historic houses for the past six years.
