Description

Join the Monmouth County Historical Association in making 18th-century style pomanders (a scented citrus ball) for the holiday season at our historic c. 1752 Covenhoven House! Sit by the crackling fire and enjoy light refreshments as you create wonderful scent-filled pomanders and learn about their extensive history. This is an easy and relaxing craft, perfect for adults of any age! After you're done, roam the house and enjoy our new exhibit "Choices" which discusses the choices made by Elizabeth Covenhoven and her household in the days leading up to the Battle of Monmouth and the occupation of the British in 1778.
