Words from the Farm: A Poetry Workshop at Quiet ValleyMarch 28 | 10:00 AM–1:00 PM
Cost: $20 per person
Step into the quiet anticipation of spring at Quiet Valley Living Historical Farm and experience the season as it was known to 19th-century farm families—through words, memory, and imagination.
This immersive three-hour poetry workshop invites participants to slow down, listen, and write in a warm, historic setting inspired by candlelight, early spring landscapes, and the rhythms of farm life. Using guided prompts, sensory objects, and stories drawn from rural Pennsylvania history, participants will create their own original poems rooted in place and personal reflection.
No prior writing experience is required. Whether you are an experienced poet or have never written a poem before, this workshop is designed to be welcoming, inspiring, and gently structured to help everyone find their voice.
Participants will:
Explore how spring life was experienced on a 19th-century farm
Use historical imagery, sounds, and objects to spark creativity
Write original poetry guided by simple, supportive prompts
Share (if they wish) in a warm, encouraging group setting
Workshop time is from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm on March 28, 2026. All materials are provided. Participants will receive a Quiet Valley pencil, feather quill (with ballpoint pen), and a writers journal. Participants are encouraged to dress warmly and bring a lunch or light snack.
Join us for a peaceful and meaningful gathering where history, creativity, and storytelling come together.
