2020 Week at Rachel’s Cottage is July 11-18

Limited chances for use of Rachel Carson’s seaside cottage for the week of July 11-18, 2020 are now available! We sell only 100 tickets at $100 each. 

This is the fourth year we are offering the opportunity to support the Homestead in Springdale, PA with a chance to visit the place Rachel came to love.

After The Sea Around Us was published in 1951, Rachel personally selected the site with granite shores and tidepools on Southport Island. The ocean view is the centerpiece of the cottage, which she designed as the place to spend her summers.

The “donate” page asks for amount, and you need to allow pop-up to get to the RCHA PayPal page. You can use PayPal or a credit or debit card. You will be contacted via email within two days to confirm your chance purchase. 

This fund-raiser is most important for continuing our mission of maintaining and restoring Rachel Carson’s homestead, offering programs, and welcoming visitors

A VERY SINCERE THANK YOU to everyone who participates! 

The prize is for use of Rachel’s cottage for the week of July 11-18, 2020. The prize does not include travel or other expenses.
