History & Soup - Stone Walls and Geology of Seacoast NH

Our next History & Soup talk is next Weds, 7/2 at 5:30pm with Portsmouth resident Sylvia Olson. Her talk, Stone Walls and Seacoast Geology will focus on the stone walls we see winding through the forests, and the silent cellar holes, carefully lined with stones and now filled with living trees. How did the early farmers make these walls, and why? Ms. Olson will share the techniques of quarrying stone from ledge and boulder, and the immense age and amazing geology of the New Hampshire seacoast region.

This talk will be at the Warner House Carriage House with soup served at 5:00pm and the talk starting at 5:30pm. Tickets are $10 for non-members and FREE for Members. Seats are limited, so sign-up early. Email bWFuYWdlciB8IHdhcm5lcmhvdXNlICEgb3Jn or call 603-436-5909.
