Description
Four-part series about one family's food cultivation and prepararation in the late 1800s with the Robinsons who lived in Ferrisburgh, where Rokeby Museum now exists. Based on journals, letters and other historical data. Includes details on Merino sheep, sugaring, dairy, apples. I also spoke with Jane Williamson of Rokeby who said she also has family recipe books (with slaughtering/canning log) and butter molds/churns but not good photos of them.
