HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF BAY COUNTY
Heirloom Recipe Project
Join in our Heirloom Recipe Project! Bring your favorite family recipe to the Museum on the 13th of August. We will scan and archive your piece of family history. Collecting and archiving heirloom family recipes allows us to preserve more than instructions for cooking — it safeguards a lineage of memory, identity, and cultural continuity. By recording their recipes, families protect fragile oral traditions from being lost and transform everyday meals into historical documents. The History Museum will publish a compendium of local family recipes at the conclusion of the Heirloom Recipe Project.

September's Public Program

Join us in September as Kate Schreiber, of the University of West Florida, describes how local residents can become involved in archaeology in our area. On Monday the 28th, Ms. Schreiber will explain the operations of Heritage Monitoring Scouts Program and how you can participate. The location of September's program will be announced at a later date.
