May 8, 2021 (Saturday) 11am to 4 pm


                                           The Burchfield Society Board honored Charles Burchfield's mother on Mother's Day weekend 2021.
                                           Alice Murphy Burchfield was a single mother who raised six wonderful and productive
                                          children in this very homestead.  She was also known in the neighborhood as a talented baker.
                                          Visitors to the  backyard garden sampled a cookie made with love from a vintage recipe.

                                          Children were  inspired to create their own Mother’s Day cards in our Night Wind House.

                                          Salem Girl Scouts Troop 80774 members dedicated a Little Free Library which they
                                          sponsored across the street on a Burchfield Homestead property.
