Special thanks to Historic Cook Diane Schwindt from Ketcham Inn Foundation Museum for her wonderful, interactive lecture and demonstration titled: “An Historic Timeline of Food” Saturday, March 9.

What a treat as Diane Schwindt took the audience on a journey to learn about the evolution of food. She explained the advancements and improvements that have been made over time and demonstrated the use of some of the tools that have been used throughout the progression. There were even some historic food samples!
