Fall is in the air, and the members of the Oliver Miller Homestead Associates invite you to join us for some of the traditional activities that our pioneer forefathers would have enjoyed in the late eighteenth century. The Children’s Harvest Festival will be held at the Homestead site off Corrigan Drive in South Park on Sunday, October 20, from 1:30 until 4:30 p.m.

Writing with quill pens

One favorite activity for the children is romping in the large leaf pile. Children may participate in old-fashioned games such as the corn cob toss and ducking for apples. They may try their hands at doing tin punching, churning butter, making church babies, writing with quill pens or sampling one of the many different corn crafts. Tussie mussies, fragrant bouquets of flowers, and herbs will be available for purchase.

All outdoor events will be weather permitting. In case of rain, the buildings will be open for tours and some crafts, but some of the crafts might have to be cancelled.
Admission for this special event is two dollars. For additional information and a map, visit our web site at www.olivermillerhomestead.org or call 412 835-1554.
