THE KITCHEN at Castle Tucker in Wiscasset
Cathy Messmer will lead a special talk and tour of Castle Tucker focused on food and cooking on Aug. 23 from 9-11 a.m.
Participants will discover how wife and mother Mollie Tucker prepared meals in her 19th-century kitchen. See the recipes, ingredients and tools she used to feed her family and cook for holidays and special occasions, along with examples of long-forgotten Victorian tableware — and taste a sample of biscuits made from Mollie’s recipe.
The admission price of $10 for Historic New England members and $15 for nonmembers includes a full tour of the house after the program. Advance purchase is required at (207) 882-7169 or shop.historicnewengland.org.
