The Seabrook Village Foundation will host a community service day at the Bowens Farm in Sunbury on Saturday, May 14 at 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. The farm is located at 660Trade Hill Road, Midway.

The Board of Directors is in the process of reorganizing and restoring Seabrook Village so that tours can be offered again. The first step is to get the admin offices and museum operational. We’ve had crews out each weekend doing work and would like to invite community members and partners to come down for the last phase of clean-up at the Bowens House. It will be a great opportunity to see the progress and learn about future plans.
