Time for Spring Cleaning! On Monday, March 30 we will gather to spruce up the farm for spring. We will start around 9 but anytime you can come out and lend a hand would be appreciated. Work will be done inside and outside building, painting siding and putting in a new water pump. If you have w**d eaters, gardening tools, paint brushes, shop vacs, cleaning rags, etc throw them in the car and head to the Farmstead. It is always fun to see each other and get ready for a new season.

2025’s “1860’s Lifestyles Expo” started off with rain but the skies soon cleared and a fun day exploring the GCF buildings and meeting up with the demonstrators was enjoyed by the many visitors. Yummy food provided by the College of the Ozarks at their concession stand and good old time music provided by Terry Hammer and his friends kept everyone in a relaxed and happy mood.
