Discovery Days: Pioneer Life will take place Wednesday, April 9, at the Heritage Center, 13912 W. Camelback Road. The event is open to the public and designed with homeschoolers and students on half-day schedules in mind.
This month’s theme will explore the lives of pioneers and farm workers in the Southwest Valley. Attendees can learn how cotton was planted and picked, try washing laundry the old-fashioned way, and make adobe bricks.
