EDINBURG — The Museum of South Texas History (“MOSTHistory”), a museum chronicling the heritage of South Texas and Northeastern Mexico, invites the community to celebrate Pioneer & Ranching Crafts Day on Feb. 20 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. This community tradition began 26 years ago and continues to offer a day filled with entertainment and demonstrations that illustrate the crafts and traditions of early farming and ranching in South Texas and northeastern Mexico.
Visitors can expect to discover something new and rediscover many favorite family activities from previous years. This year’s theme will include the role of leña (firewood) and la cerca de leña (mesquite fence) in the lives of early settlers of the region. Experience the history of live ranchstyle cooking and craft demonstrations with music and dance performances. Mark your calendars for fun activities and much more!
