"There are many Frontyard stories – the nature of the space is such that none should be given any precedent above any other"

--(Bacon et al., 2019)


We will conduct a series of history harvests to gather, collect, and share the many stories, memories, and experiences of the Frontyard community that have grown over the years.

What is a History Harvest?

A history harvest is a method for co-creating historical narratives by inviting community members to share their lived experiences, family stories, photo albums, keepsakes, and other ephemera with researchers and fellow community members. Researchers at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln developed history harvests to conduct a "people's history" of the oft-overlooked communities of the American Midwest.

This project is supported by a 2023 Inner West Council Community History Grant.
