About
Families are invited to The Brown Homestead for an outdoor autumn playday on Saturday, October 4. Youngsters (ages 3 - 6) can join a Storytime Circle at 10 a.m. led by St. Catharines Public Library, followed by nature-inspired arts and crafts with the Garden City Gardeners. Families can drop-in anytime between 10 a.m. - 3 p.m. to take part in crafts using natural materials found on site, help us harvest our community-based garden, and discover our pastoral property with self-guided scavenger hunts and other activities. Nature-based activities are designed for children up to age 12, and the day is perfect for the whole family to enjoy!
Organizer
The Brown Homestead
The Brown Homestead was founded in 2015 to preserve and maintain significant heritage buildings and sites.
We believe that historic sites reach their full potential when they are vibrant community spaces that nurture a growing passion for learning. The Brown Homestead is a model of how historic sites can become creative educational leaders and community catalysts, helping to redefine educational paradigms for a changing world.
We are working to ensure that historic site management becomes an integral part of community planning and development.
