Heritage Day at the Merrigum Museum showcases demonstrations of a wide range of pioneering skills and crafts, with the emphasis on operating rather than static displays.
Included are sheep-shearing (blade and machine), vintage hay-baling, sleeper-cutting, shaft bending, wood-turning, rope-making, milk separating and butter-churning and much, much more.
Washing and ironing as our great grandmothers did it, washing and ironing with copper and washboard and flat irons. A General Store and a 'Photos of the Past' competition will also be featured.
Homemade goodies will be on sale. BBQ lunch is available.
