Events start at 4 p.m. and are free and open to the public.<\/p>\n<p>Kitchen gardens were critical to 19th-century households. They were a specialized form of cultivation that grew a variety of foods for the family table. The fencing and lay-out of the gardens were particularly distinct. The Kline Homestead has created a replica of these plots.<\/p>\n<p>The John Kline Homestead endeavors to preserve Kline\u2019s memory as a 19th-century Brethren minister who led the Linville Creek congregation in Broadway. Kline established a reputation for service to the church and community, commitment to peace, and anti-slavery views.<\/p>\n<p><em>For more information contact Paul Roth at <a href=\"mailto:proth@bridgewater.edu\">proth@bridgewater.edu<\/a> or 540-896-5001.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The John Kline Homestead in Broadway, Va., will host a \u201cGarden Party\u201d to dedicate its new kitchen garden on Sunday, Sept. 15.
