SUMMARY:STATEN ISLAND’S FARMING LEGACY
DESCRIPTION:Image: Farm on Richmond Hill Road\, 1937\, Percy Loomis Sperr\, NYPL\n  \nWhen seventeenth century European settlers arrived\, they had difficulty planting and growing in unfamiliar territory. Fortunately\, the native Lenape offered assistance. The successful agricultural community that resulted lasted until the 1950’s. Gentlemen farmers\, including Frederick Law Olmsted and Dr. Samuel T. Akerly\, arrived in the nineteenth century. They made significant contributions to successfully tilling the earth. Their farming traditions would be added to and complemented by the growing techniques of immigrant Italians and Greeks at the turn of the twentieth century. Discover our agricultural ancestors and how they lived off of the land. \nSPEAKER\nPatricia M. Salmon\, FOBH Historian and a Curator of History\, retired\,\nfrom the Staten Island Museum \nSUNDAY\, OCTOBER 20\, 2024\, 1:00-2:30 PM \nST.
