The German Schrebergarten Tradition
Written by Sam Sjoberg
Since the Industrial Revolution, our jobs have moved from the woods to the wood in our desks but we still participate in low-tech activities such as hiking. The Germans are no different.

Born August 10, 1874, Herbert Clark Hoover was the first American of German descent to occupy the Oval Office.

Guten Tag miteinander! Wie geht es Ihnen heute? (How are you all doing today?) I hope all of you are doing well despite the drizzly weather we have today and quite possibly for the rest of this week. DC weather, am I right?
Tomorrow, Wednesday, July 18, 2018, the GAHM will be closed until 4 pm due to filming. We will be hosting the popular Travel Channel show “Mysteries at the Museum”. Please check back for updates and broadcast information.

Hallooo schöne Leute!! I can’t believe it’s already time for the first official Artist of the Week! I had most of last week off because of the 4th of July, but for some reason it feels like I’ve been out for two weeks straight!
The board members and staff of the German-American Heritage Foundation and Museum wish you all a very happy 4th of July! The museum will be closed tomorrow, and will reopen on Thursday, July 5 at 11 am.
