Thank you to everyone from Bemis Manufacturing and Sargento Cheese who volunteered at Wade House Historic Site last Thursday during the United Way's Day of Caring. Your help was much needed and invaluable.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!We would like to thank the 30 volunteers from Bemis Manufacturing Company and Sargento Cheese for spending the day on September 21 volunteering at Wade House as part of the United Way of Sheboygan County Day of Caring!
The team made an incredible impact at the Wisconsin Historical Society site, working on painting, brush removal, and helping us prepare two buildings for upcoming projects.
We can't thank these incredible volunteers enough.
There were more than 900 volunteers who worked at 44 local non-profit sites across Sheboygan County.

Wade House is celebrating the bounty of our garden this month –and in Betsey Wade’s time, she would have been thinking about how to preserve this abundant harvest to include as part of the meals that she served to stagecoach travelers passing by on the plank road.
Visit Wade House Historic Site in September for a tour of our garden and to sample fresh picked veggies including our pole beans, peas, tomatoes and heritage lettuce varieties. Wade House is open Wednesday through Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and a visit always includes two horse-drawn wagon rides. ... See MoreSee Less
