Experience history like never before at Hearth to Table: Dinner in 1648 at Sainte-Marie among the Hurons.

Set inside the reconstructed Jesuit mission chapel, guests are invited to gather around a candlelit harvest table and enjoy a multi-course, 17th-century-inspired meal. Each course is introduced by a costumed interpreter who brings the stories and challenges of historic cooking to life.

Featuring dishes like Three Sisters Pottage, maple-brined venison, roasted squash, and Haudenosaunee-inspired strawberry bread, this is an evening where food and history meet in a truly immersive way.
