Homestead Education Day was an annual program held at the Horn Farm Center from 2013-2016 that provided an educational day of demonstrations, talks, and workshops focused on teaching common and forgotten homesteading skills. Next year, the Horn Farm Center will celebrate its 20th Anniversary by hosting a "throwback" Homestead Education Day event on Saturday, June 22, 2024.

In preparation for this homage to the past, we want to hear from you! Let us know what homesteading skills you would like to learn at the 2024 Homestead Education Day by filling out the survey below.
