For centuries, communities relied on millers to grind the grain for their daily bread. Discover what is involved with this important trade from Alisa Crawford who has spent years as a miller using the traditional skills needed to grind grain by wind and water power. She will share how she learned her skills to become a Dutch certified miller, and why practicing these skills preserves the past. This presentation is based on Alisa’s article, The Skills of a Miller, which appeared in the Chronicle magazine of the Historical Society of Michigan, summer 2025.
