Program Description

Event Details

The history of colonial medicine is filled with stories of strange tonics, outlandish remedies, and curious “cures.” Toads, snails, mashed potatoes, mandrake, and bear grease were commonly prescribed. While some of these ingredients sound crazy, there’s logic behind many of them!

Join Ehris and Velya for a funny and factual exploration of colonial medicine. It it all just quack - or fact?
