MARIETTA - Cobb Landmarks is excited to announce the return of the Root House Harvest Dinner, a special evening of rustic elegance at the William Root House. This popular experience includes an intimate meal served in the picturesque gardens surrounding the 1840s home. Guests will be seated at antique farmhouse tables and enjoy a southern-style dinner, including appetizers, fried chicken, seasonal vegetables, and dessert. Iced tea and water will be served. Space is limited and the event always sells out. Table reservations are open at RootHouseMuseum.com/Harvest.

ABOUT THE WILLIAM ROOT HOUSE: The Root House Museum is the first house museum in the U.S. to offer a fully self-guided touchscreen tour. One of the oldest homes in the Atlanta area, the Root House is more typical of its time and place than the columned mansions popularized by Gone With the Wind. While the home and grounds have been meticulously restored to their 1860 appearance, interactive electronic displays have been added to tell the story of the Root family and their enslaved house servants.

Cobb Landmarks is a historical society rooted in the past but always looking forward.
