We are outside the city for today’s Five Minute Histories video because we are at Great Kids Farm, a Baltimore City Public School farm and education center! This site is brimming with history—it started as an African American boys’ home run by Rev. George F. Bragg, a formerly enslaved man who dedicated his life to helping others. Watch to the end of the video to hear from some very special guests :) Thanks for watching and see you next week!

This is our series called "Five Minute Histories." We record short videos about different historic places all over Baltimore and post them on our Facebook page, YouTube channel, and website.  For more information or to become a member of Baltimore Heritage, check out: baltimoreheritage.org/support
