Saturday, May, 27 to Monday, May, 29

10 am to 3 pm daily

Visit Button Farm (within Seneca State Park just off Black Rock Road) for a special Memorial Day Weekend celebrating 250 years of African-American veterans. Learn of Harriet Tubman’s role in the Civil War, where she served as a spy and scout, and became the first woman in American history to lead an armed military assault. The weekend will be co-sponsored by Button Farm, Heritage Montgomery and the National Museum of Civil War Medicine among others. Living-history demonstrations, hands-on activities, exhibits, food and music will round out the events.

If you can’t visit Memorial Weekend stop by another time — this historic farm is adjacent to the Seneca Greenway Trail and accessible by car from Black Rock Road.
