As summer gives way to autumn, the farm family's busiest season is in full swing. Fields, orchards, gardens, and woodlots are yielding their bounty, and every member of the household has a role to play in preparing for the months ahead. The success of the coming winter—and even next spring's planting season—depends on the work accomplished during these critical weeks of harvest.

Presented in period clothing and grounded in historical research, The Dirty Blue Shirts will explore the rhythms of 19th-century farm life as families gathered crops, preserved food, stored seeds, and prepared for the challenges of a New England winter. Through engaging storytelling and historical interpretation, visitors will discover the skills, traditions, and hard work that transformed a season of abundance into year-round sustenance. From root cellars and drying herbs to canning, salting, and planning for Thanksgiving, this immersive program reveals how rural families made the most of nature's harvest and secured their future through careful preparation and community effort.
