Old Time Harvest Day 1 to 5 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 2
Old-Time Harvest Day in Grove
City will give today’s generation a look into the past at historical
Century Village, 4185 Orders Road. The City of Grove City and the
Southwest Franklin County Historical Society collaborate annually to
organize this fun, free and educational event for the community.
Demonstrations such as leather tooling, soap making, blacksmithing,
butter churning and two-man sawing will be presented throughout the day
along with period-appropriate harp and dulcimer performances. Most
activities are hands-on and appropriate for all ages. Children will also
have the opportunity to make crafts and learn old fashion games.
Concessions will be available. Century Village, located at Fryer Park,
represents the initial stage of development for a typical central Ohio
community in the 1850’s and features a one room school, outhouse,
windmill, log cabin and barn.
