Georgia's Salem Gold Coin Hunt Returns in 2020!

Posted by on

One of our highlights last October in Salem was 9 year old Georgia's gold coin hunt. It has returned this year with the help of her friends at the Peabody Essex Museum, with this mask wearing "Witch" on a shiny gold coin. We've scaled things back a little this year and are only hiding coins on Saturdays and Sundays in October, but tune in to Georgia's Instagram page HERE to read the clues and help you on your hunt for gold in Salem! All hiding locations are outdoors, and please wear a mask and socially distance while looking! Can't make it to Salem this year? Check out Georgia's online store and pick up some of her spooky new products, since she won't be out vending this month like she has in past years!
