Farmstead Arts at The Kennedy Martin Stelle Farmstead in Basking Ridge is participating in Somerset County's Weekend Journey Through The Past, Oct. 8 and 9. It's a great event that brings hundreds of history lovers to historic sites around the county for tours and activities. We need volunteers to be at the welcome desk (adults or teens), lead tours of the historic house and barn (adults or teens), and teach colonial crafts and games (children with teens or adult as a team - girl scout/boy scouts would be great!). Saturday Oct. 8 from 10 - 5 and Sunday, Oct. 9 from noon - 4. Pick your hours. We will sign for service hours. Visit www.farmsteadartscenter.org to read about Farmstead Arts!
