MILTON - The New Hampshire Farm Museum will hold its annual Old-Fashioned Thanksgiving on Saturday from 10 a.m.-3 p.m.

New Hampshire has a special connection to Thanksgiving, as it was our own Sarah Josepha Hale, born on a farm in Newport, who after many years of letter writing, persuaded President Lincoln to declare the fourth Thursday in November a National Day of Thanksgiving in 1863, thereby establishing the National Holiday.

This Saturday the Farm Museum will be offering special living history farmhouse tours with costumed role players, homemade pumpkin pie and hot cider in the farmhouse kitchen, horse-drawn wagon rides through the fields, visits with the farm animals, and popcorn over the campfire.

Admission $10 adult, $5 child. Museum members $5/$3
