About the event

More Precious Than Silver: A Tour of Plymouth Colony’s Cornfield

Venture into the field and wander among the rows to learn about the crop that has sustained civilizations for thousands of years. Join Museum historian and horticulture specialist Fred Dunford, PhD, to understand how the English colonists embraced this Indigenous crop. This special tour includes an exploration of the Museum’s outdoor laboratory where we experiment with historical planting techniques.
