In the summer of 57 BCE, Julius Caesar found himself deep in Belgic territory, his legions stretched thin and unaware of the trap ahead. On the banks of the Sambre River, tens of thousands of Nervii warriors burst from the hedgerows, catching Rome’s finest with their shields lowered and their helmets off. In minutes, order dissolved into chaos.

Imagine yourself nestled between the coastal flora, the Pacific Ocean, the Columbia River, and our nation’s historic past, where cannon fire once thundered against the ocean breeze and evergreen huckleberry now thrives, quietly reclaiming the land that once held military roots. Once a strategic location to guard the Pacific Northwest and the Columbia River, Fort Stevens was constructed by the U.S Army at the end of the Civil War and remained an active fort through World War II.
Cooking during World War II was a very different experience and went through many changes, year after year. Social norms and rationing meant ingredients weren’t always available while many civilians focused on gardening and home canning.
