SUMMARY:Wilton Historical Society Buzz Saws\, Jacks and Tops Workshop for Kids:  Making a Cup and Ball Game
DESCRIPTION:What could be more fun than toys? While today’s kids tend to dive into screens for a diversion\, some simple toys are as much fun today as they were 200 years ago. Children in colonial times spent a lot of time working\, and were eager to partake of outdoor activities\, using little more than their imaginations and handmade toys and games. \nMade with readily available materials\, buzz saws\, jacks\, cup & ball\, tops and other such toys will be the topic at this Saturday\, March 2 workshop for kids at the Wilton Historical Society from 11 a.m.-12:30 p.m.. Museum educator Laurie Walker will talk about how toys were made\, and have everyone learn how to play jacks and Shut the Box. \nFor a workshop project\, the kids will make buzz saws and cup & ball to bring home. Hand pies are the snack and the children will help make them. \nSuggested for ages 6-12. The cost for Wilton Historical Society members is $10/child\, with a maximum of $25/family; the cost for non-members is $15/child\, with a maximum of $35/family. Please register via email or by calling 203.762.7257. \n

SUMMARY:"A Journey...."  One-Woman Show by Kimberly Wilson
DESCRIPTION:In recognition of March as Women’s History Month\, Wilton Library and the Wilton Historical Society present A Journey . . .\, a one-woman show by Westport writer and actress Kimberly Wilson. Wilson was awarded “Best Playwright” in 2016 by the Atlanta Black Theatre Festival for the piece. At the end of the presentation\, Wilson will conduct a “talk-back” session. \nRooted in research\, A Journey is a tour-de-force of acting and song\, as the statuesque Wilson modulates her powerful contralto from a whisper to a fervent spiritual\, capturing the spirits of Harriet Tubman\, Sojourner Truth\, Rosa Parks\, Maya Angelou\, two invented characters she calls the ‘Slave Woman’ and ‘African Queen\,’ and a new historical figure\, Haggar Tonquin of Wilton. Wilson skillfully tells of the struggles and influence of Black womanhood as an integral part of the history of the United States. \nA reception will follow the talk. No charge but donations are always welcomed. See the library’s registration link for more details. Registration is highly recommended. Register online or call 203.762.6334.

SUMMARY:Wilton Historical Society Stenciling Workshop for Kids
DESCRIPTION:According to Early American stenciling expert Suzanne Korn\, “The history of decorative arts in America includes a colorful chapter between the years of 1778 and 1840\, when itinerant wall stencilers roamed New England country roads\, painting their colorful folk art in homes\, inns\, and taverns along the way.” \nWilton Historical Society museum educator Laurie Walker will discuss the simple\, colorful folk art\, and how and where it appeared\, and will show participants a stenciled oil-cloth rug in the Fitch house dining room as an example. The workshop project is a painted and stenciled wooden picture frame. The children will help make their own snack of applesauce. \nThe workshop is suggested for ages 6-12. The cost for Wilton Historical Society members is $10/child\, with a maximum of $25/family; the cost for non-members is $15/child\, with a maximum of $35/family. Please register via email or by calling 203.762.7257. \nDid You Know? \n“The itinerant stenciler would live with the family during the time that he was beautifying their home. Often\, his only payment for stenciling the walls in a home would be his food\, drink and lodging. We know that some of the early stencilers were farmers by trade\, so they would practice their craft during the winter months. Consequently\, they often toiled and traveled under harsh conditions. Even when the stenciler secured work\, and was safely off the cold\, snowy roads\, it was not unlikely that many of the rooms he was employed to decorate had no heat! However\, when his job was done\, and it was time to move on to the next town\, the lively and colorful folk art that he would leave behind would brighten and warm even the coldest of rooms with a cheerful and homespun glow! Beautiful flower baskets\, graceful willow trees\, wildflower sprays and simple vines plump with berries would adorn the walls in a wash of color. The lives of rural New Englanders were enhanced by this simple and quaint decoration\, and the dark interiors and plain plastered walls of their homes were made bright with the hope and promise of spring.”   –– Suzanne Korn\, Early American stenciling expert

Upset at the penny-pinching ways of White Sox owner Charles Comiskey\, and tempted by the riches promised to them by gamblers\, several members of the team conspired to help the Cincinnati Red Stockings win the 1919 World Series. \nWulf is a senior writer with ESPN\, where he has happily worked since 1997\, when he became one of the founding editors of ESPN The Magazine. See the library’s registration link for details. The lecture is sponsored by MaryGail and Jerry Gristina; Steve Hudspeth  is the moderator. \nThe final lecture is Sunday\, March 31 at the Wilton Historical Society – “Votes for Women” – with Pam Dougherty of the Connecticut Women’s Hall of Fame. \nReception will follow the talk. There is no charge to attend but donations are always welcomed. Registration required–please register for each lecture individually. Register online or call 203.762.6334.

SUMMARY:Ambler Farm's Online Transplant Sale
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the 2019 transplant growing season. Thank you for supporting Ambler Farm and for growing your own food at home. We want your gardens to be a success and so we are excited to offer you a variety of vegetables that we hope you will enjoy growing. We provide them a good start in our greenhouse and let you do the rest. \nEvery year we start selling cold-tolerant transplants in mid-April and warm weather transplants in mid-May. We will offer a selection of transplants for sale on Saturdays from 9 a.m.-noon. As we do every year\, we are again offering our “Grown Only to Order” program to offer you a wider choice for your home gardens. We’re offering several additional varieties of 25 vegetable types. We do this because we would love for you to experiment where we cannot. Therefore we have many varieties that we will grow only if you order them in advance. \nFor example\, we plan to grow 19 varieties of tomatoes at the farm this summer\, but there will be 60 varieties from which you can choose for your own garden. We are offering additional varieties of eggplants\, flowers\, herbs\, onions\, scallions\, salad and cooking greens\, peppers\, summer squash and winter squash. We are also offering crops such as arugula\, beets\, radishes and spinach that normally get seeded directly but can be transplanted for an early start. \nYou will see a date on each transplant page that says the last day to order any of the transplants online. The reason for this is to allow Farmer Jonathan to have enough time to grow the plants in the greenhouse. Don’t fret if you miss ordering online as we will have transplants available at the farm. What we will not have are the items that say Note: This Item Grown to Order Only. Please note that we cannot ship plants. Please see deadline by transplant below: \nBroccoli/Brussels Sprouts/Cabbage/Cauliflower – March 18 \nCelery/Celeriac/Fennel – March 10 \nCooking Greens – March 24 \nCorn/Okra – March 31 \nCucumbers – April 21 \nEggplant – March 24 \nFlowers – March 31 (There are some flowers that will end earlier) \nHerbs- March 17 \nLeeks/Onions/Scallions/Shallots – February 24 \nCantaloupe/Muskmelons/Watermelons – April 21 \nBeans/Peas – March 24 \nPeppers – March 10 \nRoot Vegetables – April 21 \nSalad Greens – March 31 \nSummer Squash – April 14 \nTomatillos/Tomatoes (Cherry\, Pear\, Paste\, Saladette) – March 24 \nTomatoes (Slicing) – March 24 \nWinter Squash – April 14 \nOur transplants are 100% organically grown in our greenhouse from seed in a compost-based potting soil and they are lovingly tended by our Director of Agriculture\, Jonathan Kirschner. Farmer Jonathan says to please note that we strive to give you plants that will do well when you are ready to put them in your garden. This means that size can be deceiving. Often a bigger plant will be root bound and take longer to adjust to transplanting than a smaller one. Don’t get overexcited by very large bushy plants\, they may not be the best choice for you. Transplants grown this way suffer less transplant shock and show better resistance to adverse conditions such as disease and pest pressure. Transplants include those that are suited for a colder Northern climate (when planted). \nHead to the Ambler Farm website to order yours today!

SUMMARY:Wilton Library Welcomes Lifestyle Expert Martha Stewart
DESCRIPTION:She is known as America’s trusted domestic authority\, and now she will be intimately known to a Wilton Library audience when “A Conversation with Martha Stewart” takes place at the library on Tuesday\, March 12\, from 7-9 p.m.. Martha will talk about her newest book\, The Martha Manual:  How to Do (Almost) Everything\, with her publicist and dear friend\, Susan Magrino. \nStewart has done everything from launch an iconic magazine brand to host her own Emmy-award winning lifestyle show. Most recently\, the nation has seen her co-host Martha and Snoop’s Potluck Dinner Party and appear as a recurring guest judge on Chopped. Stewart has written dozens of bestselling books on cooking\, entertaining\, and homekeeping\, but never has she published a single\, career-spanning volume where readers can easily turn for all her essential life tips. \nMagrino\, a New Canaan resident\, is chairman and CEO of Magrino Public Relations. Her early career was at Crown Publishing\, working in the publicity department\, where she first met her client Martha Stewart. These were the formative years of Martha Stewart the author\, which became Martha Stewart the brand. From book tours\, cooking demonstrations\, store appearances to television shows\, Susan was there from the start managing Martha’s public persona.What began as a business relationship continues to this day but more importantly is a friendship. \nElaine Tai-Lauria\, executive director of Wilton Library\, remarked on Stewart’s upcoming visit\, “We are thrilled to have Martha Stewart here in conversation with her friend Susan Magrino. Martha is such a well-known figure we just knew our audience would love to see her in person delivering her sage advice.” \nThe Martha Manual:How to Do (Almost) Everything is the first book to encompass Martha’s lifetime’s expertise in one beautifully illustrated\, practical handbook. It is an indispensable guide to doing things the Martha way with hundreds of projects and advice that capture her incomparable taste and guidance. The manual is designed for all readers\, regardless of age or stage of life. There is something useful within the pages whether newlyweds\, homeowners or first-time apartment renters\, recent college grads\, empty nesters\, freelancers working from home\, parents – and even pet parents. Topics in the book include but are not limited to:  Organize\, Refresh & Embellish\, Craft & Create\, Host & Entertain\, Enjoy\, Cook\, and Celebrate. \nStewart is an Emmy Award-winning television show host\, entrepreneur\, bestselling author of over 90 books\, and America’s most trusted lifestyle expert and teacher. Millions of people rely on Stewart as a source of useful “how-to” information for all aspects of everyday living – cooking\, entertaining\, gardening\, home renovating\, collecting\, organizing\, crafting\, healthy living\, holidays\, weddings\, and pet care. \nLauren McLaughlin\, assistant director of Wilton Library and responsible for visiting authors\, noted\, “With our Innovation Station at Wilton Library\, we have so many crafters who are a built-in audience for Ms. Stewart\, and we are sure they will eagerly look forward to her visit. Her books are always well received.” \nTickets for the event are $35 which includes two seats at the talk and a hardcover copy of The Martha Manual: How to Do (Almost) Everything. Advance ticket purchase is required; the tickets are non-refundable. A portion of the book sales will benefit Wilton Library. Please note the library will close at 5 p.m. in preparation for the event. Books will be distributed at check-in when the doors reopen at 6 p.m. Additional Manuals will be available for purchase that evening courtesy of Elm Street Books of New Canaan. There will be a Q&A and book signing after the talk. To purchase tickets\, visit the Wilton Library website or call 203.762.6334. The media sponsor for the event is GOOD Morning Wilton.

SUMMARY:Bullets\, Bonds\, and Butter:  Wilton Responds to War 1776-2006
DESCRIPTION:Opening on March 15\, Bullets\, Bonds\, and Butter:  Wilton Responds to War\, 1776-2006\, the new exhibition at the Wilton Historical Society\, commemorates the contributions of both the soldiers and the townsfolk who answered the call of war. While troops fought on the front lines\, Wilton residents of all ages back at home were engaged in supporting the war effort in ways both large and small. Rationing\, writing letters to the troops\, knitting socks and making bandages\, buying war bonds\, manufacturing diverse supplies\, spotting airplanes from observation towers\, collecting scrap\, sending soccer balls to underprivileged children around the world\, and in some cases\, protesting against war were all part of the response. \nBullets\, Bonds\, and Butter:  Wilton Responds to War\, 1776-2006 includes material from the Revolutionary War\, the War of 1812\, the Civil War\, World War I\, World War II\, the Korean War\, the Viet Nam War\, and the war in Iraq. To mark the anniversary of the birth of the American Legion in March of 1919\, the Wilton Historical Society worked with Adjutant Tom Moore of Wilton’s James B. Whipple Post 86 to develop a special section on the history of the organization\, which includes some of their artifacts. \nThe opening day of the exhibition\, Friday\, March 15 from 2-3 p.m.\, will be celebrated with a “birthday” cake to honor Wilton’s Post 86 and the American Legion. All are invited!

SUMMARY:Wilton Historical Society Felting Workshop for Kids:  Making Felted Soap
DESCRIPTION:One of the world’s oldest textiles\, felt is created from wool or other animal fibers that are densely matted together. It is ideal for protecting against cold and insulating against heat\, thus it has long been used for hats\, mittens\, blankets\, rugs\, yurts\, boots and clothing. At this Wilton Historical Society workshop\, museum educator Laurie Walker will discuss the origins of felting\, and lead the children in making felted soap. The kids will help make their own snack\, chocolate covered pretzels. \nSuggested for ages 6-12. The cost for Wilton Historical Society members is $10/child\, with a maximum of $25/family; non-member cost is $15/child\, maximum $35/family. Please register via email or call 203.762.7257. \nDid You Know? \nMaking felted hats\, Danbury was known as “Hat City” . . . and hatters suffered “Danbury Shakes” \nAccording to ConnecticutHistory.org\, a program of CT Humanities: \n“The origins of Danbury’s hat-making industry date back to the late 18th century. It was then that Zadoc Benedict\, having stumbled upon a way to make felt by adding heat\, moisture\, and pressure to animal pelts\, began using his bedpost to mold felt into hats. He then hired a journeyman and two hat-making apprentices and started producing three hats per day. Danbury proved an ideal location for hat making thanks to its abundant populations of beavers and rabbits for pelts and thickly wooded forests for firewood. . . . In the early 1800s\, Danbury produced mostly unfinished hats. Hatters softened and dyed the felt through an 18- to 20-hour boiling process\, and molded the pieces into their proper shape. They then rolled the hats up by twos into paper and placed them in a linen bag\, and from there\, into a leather sack for shipment to New York by coach. Once in New York\, craftsmen trimmed and finished the hats.”  \nThe expression “as mad as a hatter” is believed to have its origins in the deleterious effects of mercury nitrate exposure on workers in hat factories. During the mid-19th century\, the term “hatter’s shakes” became commonplace in the United States and Europe. It referred to the tremors experienced by workers whose prolonged exposure to the toxic mercury used in making headwear had devastating effects. In Connecticut\, the physical condition was termed the “Danbury Shakes.”
