Museum history events celebrate life on the farm

The Guernsey Museum is excited to announce that it is hosting the History Fest for the second consecutive year. This festival is a two-day event that celebrates the rich history of farming on the island. The museum itself is an impressive oval structure made mostly of glass, with a green base and a white frame, and the photo taken shows it on a cloudy day. This year's theme for History Fest is 'life on the farm,' and it is being held alongside another exhibition called Guernsey Milk Tales. The goal of these events is to educate visitors about the traditional skills and industries that have shaped Guernsey's farming history. Miffy Lane, who is the access and learning manager at the museum, expressed her excitement by saying, 'We are thrilled to be hosting History Fest here for the second year in a row. ' The Guernsey Milk Tales exhibition is located in the Brian White Gallery and Foyer and will be available for visitors until September 14. Ms. Lane added, 'This event is inspired by the farmer's market, and it provides a unique opportunity to celebrate spring while appreciating our island's traditional industries. ' Visitors are encouraged to follow BBC Guernsey for more updates and to share their own stories related to farming.
