Harvest celebrations have been a part of Native culture for thousands of years. After a long growing season, crops would be gathered in abundance, and shared with family and the wider community, signaling the beginning of winter. Explore native life and culture through presentations of indigenous dance, storytelling, and crafts in the 3rd County Courthouse and the Native Encampment. See demonstrations of hearth cooking in North America by costumed interpreters who use 18th & 19th century recipes, tools and techniques in historic kitchens throughout the village.
