Taste of the Valley
  • April 13, 2024
    10 a.m.-4 p.m.

    Taste of the Valley builds on the history of food and how it impacts our tastes today.  The event celebrates the best locally produced products of the area where ticketed guests can taste and learn about the food they make.  Beachy’s apple butter, Somerset County Maple Producers, Van Grouw Family Farm cheese, and chocolates by Stacey Engle will be just a few of the vendors providing samples of their products. 

    The ticketed event provides entry for sampling foods, guided museum tours, demonstrations, and kids’ craft.  AHS Farms Goat Milk Products will showcase their goat milk soap and have live goats for kids to pet.  You can also try your hand at churning butter and kneading dough.  Shoefly and maple Montgomery pies will also be available for sale while supplies last.

    Proceeds will go directly to the Museum for the exhibition and archive storage of the Wagner Collection, an invaluable collection of a local maple producing family spanning 1880s-2000s.  Tickets for adults are $25 and $10 for 6-12 years old.
