🌷🇺🇸 Growing Beauty Through Service! 🇺🇸🌷

The ladies of the Louisiana Purchase Chapter, NSDAR had a great chapter meeting then rolled up their sleeves for a wonderful Day of Service at Kress Farm Garden Preserve! 🌼🌿 Our members spent the day doing an assortment of community service including planting flowers and working on landscaping to help keep this special community treasure looking beautiful.

One of the best parts of the day was seeing our Patriot of the Month and a new chapter member join us in giving back! ❤️ It’s always exciting to see members working side by side to make a difference.

We are proud to support Kress Farm Garden Preserve and contribute our time and talents to a place that brings beauty and enjoyment to our community.

From planting flowers to growing friendships, this is what Service to America is all about! 🌸

Thank you to everyone who came out to help make our National Day of Service a big success!

Our DAR ladies were out in the community once again—this time welcoming visitors, serving w**e, giving tours of the historic Thomas Sappington house, and sharing a little American history along the way! 🏡🇺🇸

During Constitution Week, we love finding creative ways to help our community connect with the people, places, and stories that shaped our local history. From sharing the story of a historic home to handing out Constitution Week bookmarks, our members helped spread the message of “We the People.” 📖❤️🤍💙 And who doesn’t love leaving a history tour with a little something to remember it by?

🇺🇸🍽️ A TASTE OF 1776! 🍽️🇺🇸

What happens when DAR ladies take dinner back to the year 1776??? You get an evening filled with history, fellowship, delicious food, talented artisans, and a little Revolutionary-era flair! 🇺🇸❤️💙

Our Louisiana Purchase Chapter hosted a 1776 period-themed dinner as part of our celebration of America 250, bringing history to life around the dinner table.

But the fun didn’t stop with the food!✨ We were joined by talented tradesmen and tradeswomen demonstrating the skills and crafts of the period, giving guests a glimpse into the hard work and craftsmanship that helped build early America. Many also had handcrafted items available for purchase, making it possible to take a little piece of living history home!

👒 Period attire? Check!
🍽️ Good food? Check!
🧵 Colonial trade skills? Check!
🛍️ Handcrafted treasures? Absolutely!
🇺🇸 American history? You better believe it!

It was a wonderful evening of learning, sharing, shopping, eating, drinking, and making memories while celebrating 250 years of the American story.

Because history isn’t just something we read about—it can be something we see, taste, touch, and experience together! 📜✨

A big thank you to everyone who volunteered to make this event a success! Our Colonial tradesmen’s and women were presented with certificates of appreciation and America 250 challenge coins to commemorate their partnership for this event.
