Today’s Lunch is with the Harvey Girls along with a tour at the Great Overland
Station. We will take a step back in time and let railroad heritage take over at this
former Union Pacific Station. At the age of 15, Fred Harvey, an Englishman, immigrated to America. He had many occupations, one of which was an agent for
the Burlington Railroad. As he traveled on the train, he became very disgusted
with the way meals were served. In the spring of 1876, Fred Harvey took over
the restaurant at the Santa Fe depot in Topeka. Preferring the term Harvey Girl
to waitress, Fred Harvey recruited single women to work at Harvey Houses along
the Santa Fe Railroad line from Kansas to California. Between the 1880’s and the
1950’s more than 100,000 women, many Kansans, proudly wore the black-andwhite-uniform of the Harvey Company.
Old Prairie Town and the Historic Prairie Village and Homes
Old Prairie Town and the Historic Prairie Village and Homes feature an 1854
replica Log Cabin with Blacksmith Shop, 1870’s Victorian Prairie Mansion on
the National Register of Historic Places and 2½ acres of Botanical Garden.
Every season brings a different beauty to the 2.5 acre Botanical Garden in Old
Prairie Town. This peaceful setting includes Anna’s Place, a Victorian Reading
Garden, a classic garden pavilion, decorative walkways, water garden with foot
bridge, gazebo, 240 foot cascading rock rivulet, water features surrounded by
45,000 tulips and daffodils. Mulvane General Store is an old-fashioned mercantile that serves as their museum gift shop and visitors center. Kansas items, toys
from yesteryear, souvenirs and unique gifts are available. Potwin Drug Store is
where you can sit at the marble counter and order a soda fountain treat, and
shop for vintage era candy!
Tulips at Gage Park
Today before departing Topeka we will drive thru Gage Park which features
12,000 tulips and daffodils, an 80 year old rock garden with stone walkways and
a stone bridge. We will start our short journey home and reminise of the great
day we had in Topeka, Kansas while Tip-Toeing thru the Tulips.
