Louisa May Alcott's Orchard House, famously known as "The Home of Little Women," will host a free, family-friendly outdoor event, rain or shine, in honor of the American Revolution's 250th during the afternoon of April 19th.  The original structure of Orchard House – a traditional two-over-two Colonial home – was constructed circa 1650, and then witnessed the Redcoat Line of March to the North Bridge on the 19th April 1775!  Revel in the resilience of this dear old house, and marvel at the courage of its habitants throughout three centuries as you meet Sagamore Strong Bear Medicine, a direct descendant of Nashobah Praying Indians sheltered here in 1675.
