Living History Farms Seeks Item Donations

As a non-profit we rely on donations to keep us running. There are a few items that we are searching for that we do not have a budget to purchase this year. Donations to us are tax deductable and we would be happy to send you a letter for just such a purpose! We are trying to find someone with an old fashioned Ice Cream Maker for our day camp. We would really like one that could be cranked by hand. Also, we are short of coolers. We take Sarsaparilla to the Farmers Markets and we are in desperate need of a few more for the State Fair this year. We would love the kind that have wheels as they get REALLY heavy when they are full. Our Special Events team is in need of a large stand up commercial size popcorn popper/maker. We would love to be able to serve popcorn at our Halloween, Easter, Apple Picking Celebrations. Also on our wish list we would love to find a golf cart, new or used that could be gifted to the farms. Our day camp program has children that occasionally have some special needs and have trouble getting from one place to the next and so parts of the farms are hard to access by car. A golf cart would really help this program allow kids with greater physical challenges to attend. We are everyone's farm and we hope you will consider helping us continue to grow! Thanks in advance.-LHF Staffers
