Learn how perfumes would have been made at Agecroft Hall!
Experience the mysterious art of distilling with costumed educator Rebecca Suerdieck as she transforms plants into wearable scents. Explore Agecroft's luscious gardens through herbs and flowers grown in 17th century England. See, smell, and touch culinary and medicinal plants that might be part of your favorite perfume.
Rebecca will be in the gardens from 12:00 p.m. until 3:00 p.m. with an ongoing demonstration for visitors to drop in throughout the afternoon.
This event is included with garden admission. You can purchase your garden admission online or at the museum the day of the event.
