Oliver Miller Homestead Children’s Harvest Festival

On July 4, 1772, Oliver Miller purchased a tract of land on Catfish Run from Silas Dackster and settled on this site. He first built a log home in the wilderness. Today, the site is open to the public for self-guided tours every Sunday afternoon from 1:30 to 4:30 p.m. from the beginning of May until the second Sunday in December with the last admission at 4 p.m.

Miller Homestead Associates dress in period attire, give information about the family and the area history, demonstrate crafts, and answer questions.  

At the Harvest Festival, children can try their hands at various frontier crafts. Bring your cameras for pictures of your children in frontier dress.
