​​Ever hear of a recipe so good that someone literally took it to the grave? Join us this spooky season for two hands on workshops where we bake using recipes inscribed on actual headstones. All recipes are featured in “To Die For: A Cookbook of Gravestone Recipes”.

Session 2: Nov. 1: Isabella Carlson’s Easy Potato Rolls.

Museum members receive a 10% discount using the code WRMMEM.​

As your dough rises, you’ll take a coffee break, enjoy samples from our historic bake oven and a tour of the Historic Haus and Outbuildings.

This is a make and take course where you will learn how to make your dough and take it home ready to bake in your own oven!

This workshop is for ages 16 and up.
