About the event
The Workings of a Grist Mill: Presented by Kim Van Wormer
The native people and the early settlers used a mortar and pestle to grind "corn" seed into flour. In 1636 John Jenney erected a grist mill. It functions today with Kim at the helm. "So you have the water wheel, water flows into the wheel, the weight of the water makes the wheel turn, so now we've just created energy." Bring your questions and your pocketbook. Kim will have stone-ground flour for sale.
