Middletown Transcript: Colonial picnic highlights historic Mount Harmon Plantation

Posted on June 1, 2011 by admin

By Jennifer Hayes — Middletown Transcript

Just a few miles down the road from Middletown sits the Mount Harmon Plantation, a colonial site right on the Sassafras River in Earleville, Md., boasting 200 acres of nature trails, gardens wildlife and colonial buildings. Each year, the Friends of Mount Harmon invite the public to explore the property and enjoy a day of food, fun and colonial performances. The group will host a Colonial Plantation Picnic from noon to 4 p.m., Sunday, June 2.

Community members will have a chance to tour a colonial Manor House, take in the views of the Chesapeake’s waters, sample an Eastern Shore buffet and become apart of the American Revolution as re-enactors take them back to the 1700s.
