365 things to do in Worcester County - visit Fruitland museum in Harvard.  Fruitland museum is that small part of Americana which makes me smile thinking about visiting.  It has a little bit of the heritage of Sturbridge Village, and a lot of the charm of the New England Heritage.  In fact the website claims that Fruitlands is there to discover Heritage, Nature and Art.
