    I would be interested in coming with two preteens. What types of artifacts are you processing?

      Hi,
      We would love for you to join us! We typically process artifacts from local (Middle Peninsula) sites, generally colonial (17th and 18th century) in origin, although we occasionally have opportunities to process artifacts from local Virginia Indian sites. If you’re interest in coming you can let us know (Fairfield@fairfieldfoundation.org) and we can see if we can set it up with an artifact collection that interests you!
