On this week’s episode of the Practical Preservation podcast, Danielle spoke with Preservation Advocate Randolph “Randy”l Harris. Randy believes that “history is local” and told us about the beginnings of the Lancaster walking tour, and how it evolved into a sought after attraction. Randy also discussed the Underground Rail Road and its history in Lancaster County.
