The Cow Neck Peninsula Historical Society and Coe Hall at Planting Fields Arboretum are having a docent tour exchange for their docents and volunteers.
About 30 volunteers arrived earlier this month from Coe Hall for two tours that included the Sands-Willets House and the Dutch Barn. Cow Neck docents and volunteers headed over to Coe Hall last week for a tour of the holiday-decorated home followed by a tour of the greenhouses, with a second group scheduled to visit early in the new year.
The mission of the Cow Neck Peninsula Historical Society is to engage people of all ages in programs that highlight the lifestyles of the people and families that lived and worked on the peninsula throughout the years. Central to this mission is the preservation of the Sands-Willets House (circa 1735) and the Thomas Dodge Homestead (circa 1721), which the Society operates as house-museums, serving as resources for the community.
