22nd Virginia Volunteer Day at the Genesee Country Village & Museum

work day 5-9-09This past Saturday 14 of us spent the sunny part of the day volunteering at the Genesee Country Village and Museum in Mumford, New York. Our day started with moving one of the wagons filled with corn down to the Pioneer Homestead from behind Hosmer’s Inn.

Next we unloaded the corn from the wagon to the new corn crib. We filled pails, pans, our aprons and our skirts….IMGP1881[1]

We spent the rest of the mid-day building fences. We learned about fence construction in the process.
