This program has been cancelled. We hope to run it again in the fall so keep an eye out for that!

In-Person

Try your hand cooking on a hearth the way your ancestors did at the Montclair History Center! You'll learn how to manage the fire, use a "spider," and bake in a Dutch oven. The class will work together to cook a meal using historic "receipts" (aka recipes) and enjoy time around the hearth fire.

Classes take place in the hearth kitchen of the Crane House & Historic YWCA. Includes all supplies. BYOB. $100/person, $85 for Montclair History Center members. All participants will receive a free copy of Thirteen Colonies Cookbook. Tickets are required in advance.

Proof of vaccination will be required. Masks are optional.
