The Gospel Hill Burial Ground was established in 1827 on land donated by the Rees family. It was re-dedicated in 1980 by Boy Scout Troop 151, and, since 1994, the Harborcreek Historical Society has maintained Gospel Hill Burial Ground in partnership with Harborcreek Township. The tour highlights the stories of many of the early settlers interred here, the Gospel Hill Schoolhouse, historic families of the Station Road area, and more.

To get your game on, start with a visit to the Warren County Historical Society at 210 Fourth Ave., Warren, PA, any time this summer. The $10 registration fee provides you a clue packet and instructions for loads of fun! Each clue requires you to travel to a different part of Warren County to discover the answer.
Play as an individual or part of team, and spend your summer learning more about beautiful Warren County. But hurry! By September, it will be game over. Completed answer sheets returned by Friday, September 5, 2025, at 4:00 PM will be entered into a drawing for the prize pack. A special thank you to this year’s Challenge sponsors: the Warren County Visitors Bureau, Yankee Bush Productions, and Whirley Drinkworks!

Edinboro Area Historical Society presents an in-person program on a nineteenth century “Potager Garden.” A potager garden in the 1800s served as a grocery store and pharmacy, combining edible and medicinal plants in a beautiful and useful space. The “kailyard,” the Scottish word for this type of garden, such as we have in the Doucette House courtyard, would be commonplace for an 1861 home. The program will show how the typical plants are grown and describe how a Victorian family would use them. The program is open to all ages and will take approximately two hours. Handouts will be available. Registration required as space is limited.
Location: Edinboro Area Historical Society, 126 Water Street, Edinboro, PA 16412
About the presenter: Carol Klonicki is a certified flower show judge. She planned and planted the "kailyard" kitchen garden at the historic Doucette House in Edinboro. She is fluent in the use of medicinal plants in the garden and knowledgeable about the herbs included.
