BHHA’s Heritage Garden 2026

Each year, with the generous help of volunteers, the Heritage plants crops that were used by the Bishop Hill Colonists next to the Albert Krans Livery Stable Museum. This year, we planted broomcorn (which was used to make brooms) and sorghum (which was made into molasses). So far the crop is looking pretty good so far. There is also signage that explains the crops in more detail. So feel free to check our historic crops the next time you are in Bishop Hill.
