The Huble Homestead will officially open up to visitors for the season this weekend.
The historic site, located 40 kilometres north of Prince George, is built around the Huble home which was built in the early 1900’s, showcasing a bit of the area’s past.
Executive Director Krystal Leason said they will be hosting a public event shortly after opening.
“We’re kicking that off this Monday with Spring on the Homestead so, at that event we celebrate the coming of Spring, and we teach visitors a little bit about what settlers were doing this time of year.”
“One of the things we’ll be doing is planting potatoes in our garden, in preparation for our potato festival later this year.”
Other activities include cheese making demos, an on-site blacksmith, and the annual scarecrow making contest.
Leason said they will probably see around 300-400 people, making it a nice way to get outside without too big of a crowd.
Huble Homestead will open on Saturday, and will be open everyday until Labour Day, with admission by monetary donation.
