Stuffed Ham Marker Ceremony (FREE)

Stuffed Ham has been named as an official food of St. Mary’s County, and a marker will be erected and dedicated to this honor!

On Sunday, March 29, 2026, the marker will be installed on the grounds of the St. Clement’s Island Museum with a small ceremony beginning at 2:00 p.m. The marker was created as part of the Pomeroy Foundation’s "Hungry for History" program and credits St. Mary’s County with the creation of the dish in the early 1700s.

Immediately following the ceremony, a reception will be held next door at The Potomac Gardens and will include samples of a variety of locally made stuffed ham.
