Step Back in Time at Jerusalem Mill

Jerusalem Mill 2813 Jerusalem Road, Kingsville, United States

Discover the rich history of Jerusalem Mill Village, once a thriving commercial mill that connected rural Maryland to the world. At its peak, Lee’s Mill produced 20 barrels of flour daily, including the renowned “White Silk Flour,” filtered through silk for unmatched purity. This flour became a staple for Baltimore’s Jewish community, who ensured its kosher standards by observing the milling process. From here, barrels of flour traveled down the Little Gunpowder Falls to Baltimore’s port, reaching markets across the globe. As you explore the village, you’ll hear fascinating tales of resilience and rebellion—from an 1864 Confederate raid led by Major Harry Gilmor to the incredible treks of Samuel O. McCourtney, who walked 18 miles to Baltimore and back well into his 80s. This is a walking and standing tour, with some buildings lacking modern heating or cooling, so dress accordingly. A portion of your registration fee supports the preservation and restoration of this historic site. Reserve your spot today!

Patterson Park

28 S Patterson Park Ave, Baltimore, MD 21231 28 S Patterson Park Ave, Baltimore, United States

Join us to walk through Patterson Park and through time starting back when it was officially created in 1827. During the War of 1812, the park saw action defending Baltimore. And during the Civil War, troops here made sure Maryland didn’t secede from the Union. The park has been used for strolling, fishing, hockey, swimming, festivals and even as a beef market. Over its 198-year history, it has grown from 6 acres to 137 acres, partially thanks to the famous Olmsted Firm. Discover the history of Patterson Park, which is in many ways the story of Baltimore itself, and see how it really is "the best backyard in Baltimore."
