SUMMARY:CONCORD250 Table at AG Day
DESCRIPTION:Look for the Concord250 Table at AG Day on Saturday\, September 7\, 10am-2pm. \nConcord250 ceramics from Newbury Court Potters will be for sale to benefit Concord Carlisle Foundation. \n  \n     \nWhy are there sheep at Ag Day in Concord? Sheep are part of The Concord 250th plan\, which celebrates this momentous year by adding “history” to every event. Join spinners and sheep on the grounds of the Wright Tavern on Saturday\, September 7\, from 10 to 2.  We will honor the vital role of women leading up to the American Revolution.  Following the Sugar Act\, the Stamp Act\, and the Townsend Act\,  women in the American colonies formed the Daughters of Liberty to support a boycott of goods arriving from England.  The Daughters opposed drinking British-imported tea and purchasing imported fabrics.  They wove and wore homespun clothes and held public events\, “Spinning Bees” to teach other women how to spin thread from flax and wool.  They melted metal for bullets and sewed uniforms for the American militia.\n  \nDuring Ag Day\, spinners will demonstrate their craft near Main Street beside the Wright Tavern. Kids may feed the sheep from Lucky Lane Farm in Lincoln. *These sheep are the smallest breed in America (Ouessant) and are sweet to see no matter what your age!\n
