Historic Cookbook

The Boxborough Historical Society has reprinted the Boxborough Community Cookbook in order to give a picture of the cooking, baking, and dining habits of the 1950's. The Boxborough Community Cookbook has its early beginnings sometime in 1957 by the Ladies Alliance, a group of women who met in the evening to enjoy fellowship and earn money for the Boxborough Church. Numerous recipes from the ladies of Boxborough were gathered, compiled, and assembled to make the cookbook. In 1975 the Ladies Aid Society reprinted this cookbook for the Bicentennial Celebration. This 1998 reprinting adds historical pictures, as well as helpful cooking hints and a section on crafts.

The cookbook is available for $10 with all proceeds benefiting the Boxborough Historical Society.
