The Woodbury Heritage Society invites you to round out your summer activities with a visit to the Woodbury Heritage House and Garden at any of our last three Open Houses on August 28, September 11 and 25 from 1-4 p.m.  Kids can meet the newest addition in the garden, a model milking cow.  You can enter the contest to choose a name for the pretty bovine and try your hand at “milking” her (it’s harder than it looks, but you won’t get kicked as often).   This latest addition to our exhibit helps to highlight the importance dairy farming played in Woodbury’s past.  New members and volunteers are always welcome.
