🌾 Join us this fall for Hull’s Harvest at Cordell Hull’s Birthplace State Historic Park! 🌾

Step back into the 1870s for an immersive day of farming, food, music, and traditional skills as we prepare the farm for winter!

While Hull’s Harvest has a similar theme to our spring event, Farming Up the Past, this fall experience focuses on the harvest season. When families would gather their crops, preserve food, and make sure the farm was ready to face the long winter ahead.

Visitors will have the opportunity to interact with our living historians and interpreters as they demonstrate what life was like for families like the Hulls living in rural Tennessee in the 1870s.

🌽 Activities will include:
🔥 Blacksmithing
🧶 Crochet
🥕 Garden harvesting
🥩 Meat smoking
🎶 Traditional music
…and much more!

As you make your way around the park and visit with our resident farmers, you’ll discover that nothing came easy and everything had to be earned. From growing and harvesting food to preserving it for the winter, every task required hard work, skill, and determination.

📅 September 26 | 10:00 AM–4:00 PM
📍 Cordell Hull Birthplace State Historic Park
💰 FREE ADMISSION!

🌦️ This event will take place rain or shine, so please come prepared for the weather.

Come experience the harvest, learn some traditional skills, and discover what it took to prepare a Tennessee farm for winter in the 1870s!
