A trip to the store today looks very different than it did a few months ago, that’s for sure. But how does it compare to shopping trips of long ago? Join us on Facebook on July 4th at 1:00 pm for a live virtual tour of Laskay Emporium at Black Creek Pioneer Village. Through an exploration of our 1860s General Store we’ll aim to bust some myths and answer questions like: What was shopping like 150 years ago? What could Canadians buy in their local store? How did they acquire new clothes?
Submit your questions about shopping in the 1860s to us by email to bcpvinfo@trca.on.ca by July 2, 2020 to be sure to be included in the event.
