What happens on the day
Step back in time and savor the flavors of the 1600s!
Located in New England’s oldest town, Plimoth Patuxet brings the stories of the Wampanoag and English people to life. Now, you can experience the flavors of the 17th century firsthand. Following step-by-step guidance, you’ll prepare and enjoy thirded bread (an early colonial mix of corn, wheat, and rye flours), homemade butter, and flavorful dips and spreads like caramelized onion, spiced squash, herbaceous sorrel, and more – plus a refreshing cocktail pairing to complement it all!
But the fun doesn’t end there. Before or after your culinary experience, you can explore the museum’s historic exhibits, including the English Village, Historic Patuxet Homesite, Craft Center, and Henry Hornblower Visitor Center.
At each stop, you’ll feel like you’ve stepped back in time while interacting with expert interpreters and witnessing remarkable recreations of the original settlement.
