The Bradford House Historical Association approved for LSA grant by the Washington County Commissioners as recommended by the LSA committee.

“We have several new exhibits. I think the one that will draw the most attention is an outdoor cube, sort of like a tic tac toe board, which shows the herbs planted in our garden and what it would be used for,” said Tracie Liberatore, Bradford House executive director. “The plants are based on 18th century living and the supplies they would use for food and medicinal purposes. So many people ask about it.”

What was the Whiskey Rebellion? In the 18th century, a new nation was recovering from its War of Independence. The economy was in shambles. And, subsequently, so were the drinking habits of citizens across the fledgling United States of America. During the colonial era, American whiskey was considered a low-brow.

Wait until you see what we have planned for the space beside the Whiskey Rebellion Center.

A group of women dressed in their holiday best gathered in the Bradford House foyer, where garland wound its way up the wooden banister and mistletoe hung with care in the living room doorway.

Tracie Liberatore, Executive Director, and the Bradford House Historical Association both win a PA State Museum award for the Whiskey Rebellion Education and Visitor Center.
