Whisk Broom Making Workshop
Throughout the 19th Century, many farm families desired to have something to sell each week throughout the year. In addition to crops and livestock, products from the woodlot might create winter time work. Often, other cottage industries would fill the hours and money bag during the winter hours. Broom making was sometimes that craft. Drift into history with us for a few hours as your hands partake in all the processes of making a hand-stitched whisk broom.
