Thanksgiving Weekend Thanksgiving gets a blast from the past at Woodstock’s Billings Farm & Museum. The centerpiece of the weekend is a historically accurate and appetizingly aromatic 1890s table setting, featuring such delectable 19th-century delights as oyster soup, mashed turnips and baked apples. Families get in on the action by baking their own mini pies, crafting woven place mats and watching cooking demos at the farmhouse. After reading Chief Jake Swamp’s Giving Thanks: A Native American Good Morning Message along the StoryWalk, everyone warms up with s’mores and cocoa around the bonfire.
