Apple Day activities at Mrs Smith’s Cottage

On Saturday, September 16, Mrs Smith’s Cottage museum will be celebrating Apple Day with family activities from 1-3pm.

You can visit to take part in apple themed crafts, have a go at pressing your own apples, and take home Mrs Smith’s apple chutney recipe.

If you wish to press your own apples, please bring your own containers to take your produce home in too.

The regular NavenBEEs Toddler Club, linked to the museum will be celebrating Apple Day too on Friday (September 15) from 11am-12noon.

The Museum of Memory exhibition is still running at the cottage too

Step back in time through reminisces of Lincolnshire and beyond. Listen to tall tales of poachers and teachers, explore Mrs Smith’s diary entries, and add memories of your own to the social history maps. Who knows what you might discover?

The exhibition is open during cottage opening hours right through until late May 2024.
