A preservation project at Carpenters' Hall led to a historic discovery that revealed our Founding Fathers' favorite snack: oysters.
Now, shards of oyster shells can be found all throughout the city, right under our feet, including at the meeting place for the First Continental Congress.
In light of National Oyster Day on Tuesday, organizers welcomed people of all ages to Carpenters' Hall for the Shells of Liberty Oyster Bash.
The event was in partnership with Carpenters' Hall, Fishtown Seafood and Triple Bottom Brewing.
