Cooking in the Kitchen & Quarter
Sunday, August 17th, 2025 :: 12:00am - 12:00am
Barrington Plantation State Historic Site
Enslaved women and men, such as Mary, Jerry, Willis, Amy, and Charity, were an integral part of the full story of Barrington. Start your experience behind the Jones Home in the bustle of a busy plantation kitchen and take in the sights, sounds, and smells of a hearth cooked meal being prepared. Journey to the other side of the plantation and learn what foods Mary, Jerry, or Willis would prepare for themselves in the Quarter.
