Feeling the burn
BY FRANCINE FULTONLongbefore the days of backyard barbecues, when a trip to the store is required to buy charcoal for the grill, charcoal was made by hand through a slow wood-burning process.
At Hopewell Furnace National Historic Site, volunteer charcoal makers, called colliers, re-enacted the traditional 19th-century method of making charcoal by lighting a pit filled with wood and keeping it burning over the course of eight days. The spring charcoal burn began on May 13, and it lasted for 24 hours a day through May 20. Volunteers manned the site throughout the week as the wood in the pile “cooked.”
According to the National Park Service, charcoal was used to fuel the furnace because its burning provided the intense heat needed to form iron.
A large amount of charcoal was required to keep a furnace the size of Hopewell’s running. When it was “in blast,” the furnace would consume 800 bushels of charcoal per day.
In the early days, charcoal-making was done in the woods surrounding the furnace, and the finished product was transported back to the location. “The charcoal pit would not have been here,” said Jeff Jones, site manager. “Originally what they would have done was cut down the trees in the areas in the hills, and where there were level surfaces, that’s where they would build the (charcoal pit).” He noted that because charcoal is a lot lighter than wood, it could be more easily transported.
For the recent demonstration, volunteers used wood from oak and ash trees, which was stacked around a “chimney” and then covered with leaves and dirt to keep
out the oxygen. The charcoal pit was lit using burning coals from a nearby campfire.
Volunteer Clifford Brahmstadt explained that colliers were not trying to burn the wood. Rather it is left to “cook” to remove the sap and moisture to extract the carbon.
“The fire will burn down through the chimney and spread out,” explained Brahmstadt, noting that volunteers monitor the pit to make sure the wood keeps “cooking.”
“People in the night shift watch the fire to make sure it doesn’t go out and to make sure that it doesn’t vent. As it burns out, vents will start to open up that have to be closed.”
When the charcoal was ready, it was removed from the pile and left to cool. “We rake the charcoal out into concentric circles and let it cool to make sure it is cold before being loaded into the wagon,”
Brahmstadt said. “We let it (cool) for a day and then haul it to the charcoal barn.”
Samples of charcoal made at Hopewell can be purchased in the park’s visitors center.
Other events on May 13 included the annual shearing of Hopewell’s sheep, as well as fiber arts, blacksmithing and gardening demonstrations provided by volunteers and Hopewell park rangers, who also offered information about the history of the site.
Hopewell Furnace is located at 2 Mark Bird Lane, Elverson, about 5 miles south of Birdsboro off Route 345. The park’s facilities are currently open on Wednesdays through Sundays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission to the park is free.

Honey Brook Women’s Club presents donations
BY FRANCINE FULTONIn keeping with its motto of “Working together for a better community,” the Honey Brook Women’s Club recently distributed donations to local community service organizations.
During a meeting held on May 10 at Honey Brook Presbyterian Church, $100 gifts were presented to the Honey Brook Community Library, represented by library director Jennifer Spade; Steeple to People Ministries of Honey Brook, represented by Ivan and Anna Stoltzfus; the Honey Brook Food Pantry, represented by food pantry volunteers Becky Zeeger and Bridget Lillis; the Honey Brook Fire Company, represented by fire chief Steven Kern; and Elverson-Honey Brook Area EMS represented by battalion chief Matthew Welch. Kyle Esh from the Honey Brook Youth Center was unable to attend the meeting, so Ivan accepted the check on his behalf.
After the check presentation, each of the recipients was given an opportunity to speak about his or her nonprofits, including the impact of the organization in the community.
The club holds the check presentation ceremony annually. “We raise the money to give back to the community by fundraising,” explained club treasurer Cheryl Davidson. “On Harmony Day (last September), we sold chicken and hot dogs, and in November, we did a meat (giveaway).”

She noted that the club’s largest fundraiser is an annual tea held at the church. “We sell tickets for the tea, and we sell tickets for gift baskets that have been donated from organizations within Honey Brook,” said Davidson. “Members provide the tea, the scones, the sandwiches and the desserts.” This year’s tea was held on April 30 and featured a Kentucky Derby theme.
In addition to supporting local nonprofits, the Honey Brook Women’s Club has other annual projects. It awards a $500 scholarship to a Twin Valley High School senior, and club members provide snacks for children who participate in the Honey Brook Lions Club Halloween Parade.
