2nd Annual Cedar Creek Plow Day

2nd Annual Cedar Creek Plow Day

The 2nd Annual Cedar Creek Plow Day took place on October 10-12, 2024. Event attendees enjoyed various booths displaying different skills such as cheesemaking, making butter, canning meat, rendering animal fat, sourdough, raising and dispatching rabbits, butchering chickens, cloth production in the 1800s, broom making, caring for a family milk cow, and natural remedies and tinctures. Several craft vendors were also on site. Local volunteer fire departments provided food and drinks for sale. Teamsters used horses and mules to plow and demonstrate horse-drawn farm implements. A pony treadmill was used to make ice cream daily, but was usually full of children walking to make ice cream instead of a pony.
