Event Details

Join SIR Crow at the Red Clay State Historic Park replica farmhouse to learn about Cherokee life in the 1800s!

View the inside of our 19th-century, European-style farmhouse replica, while getting a brief history of life at the time. The farmhouse resembles those that the settlers would have lived in during the 1800s that the Cherokee adopted to replicate a European way of life before their removal on the Trail of Tears.

The farmhouse will be open for an hour, so feel free to drop by at any time during the program!
