Begun in 2010, this blog offers analysis and reflection by Susan Bailey on the life, works and legacy of Louisa May Alcott and her family. Susan is an active member and supporter of the Louisa May Alcott Society, the Fruitlands Museum and Louisa May Alcott's Orchard House.
I love the old pictures of the house between 1865 and 1912, especially when the house was in disrepair with the tall grass!
There’s a picture that flashes by of the committee for the 1912 opening – I’m guessing the secretary, Carrie Hoyle is among them – wish I knew which one! Hoyle is my maiden name. 🙂
How awesome! I hope I can make to to the living history tour or I will lobby the rest of the family really hard to make our annual Christmas shopping trip coincide with the holiday event. It would be fun to take my nieces to the Hand-In-Hand tour but I think they’re still a bit too young.

Looks fantastic!

I hope too to make it to Orchard House over Christmas. I’d love to see all the authentic decorations.
