Programs

Please join us on September 28th from 10am – 5pm and September 29th from 11am-4pm, when we will host another historic encampment at Shawnee Prairie Preserve around the log house education area. We will have long-hunters in the forest, and settlers in the log house baking breads in the cobb oven or cooking over the hearth. There will be smithies in the blacksmith shop, perhaps some farm animals, and many historical interpreters who would love to share their passion for history with you.

For this event, our lovely pioneer women would like to share their skill at making delicious hand-baked breads in the cobb oven of the log house. They will be taking pre-orders until September 23 so you can be sure they will have the selections that you may want. After September 23, you can still stop out on the encampment weekend, September 28th and 29th, and take your chances that there will be bread available in the log house. Call the office at Shawnee Prairie Preserve (937-548-0165) to place your orders beginning September 4th when a list of available flavors will be posted. Payment will be due at pick-up on September 28th or 29th, cash or check only.
