Greetings from Bethlehem Trading Post
We are a family business dedicated to providing the Reenactment Community with high quality Historical Clothing and Supplies. We started reenacting as a family over 20 years ago and participated as a sutler in many reenactments throughout New England and the East Coast. Over time we have provided goods for the reenactor community as well as museums like Fort Ticonderoga, Museum of American Revolution, Old Barracks Museum, Freedom Trail Foundation, and even Colonial Williamsburg among many others.
