The Battle of Bunker Hill is now infamous. The effects of revolution are spilling onto the Virginia frontier and men have mustered, preparing to march in defense of liberty. A heartfelt symbol of home is presented, both as a reminder and a warning. Sit amongst the women of Martin’s Station, hear the talk of sacrifice and hardship, and watch as they sew the very symbol with which this new nation will solidify its freedom.

Two women dressed in 1770's clothing stand next to a clay oven.
