“Old Time Country Christmas” at Nelson Pioneer Farm and Museum

Merry Christmas from Oskaloosa News

The Mahaska County Historical Society invites you to share an “Old Time Country Christmas” at Nelson Pioneer Farm and Museum.

This Christmas celebration will remind you of days gone by when winters chill nipped at the corners of fire lit homes. Come and share a slower paced holiday celebration. Hear choirs singing in the Coal Creek meeting house and Holiday recitations in the Prine School. Search for just the right gift from the Sears Catalog at the Mott General Store or mail your post cards and a letter to Santa in the Wright Post office. The Blacksmith and rope maker will be working too. Or visit the families at the Nelson, Littler and Buxton homes.

Refreshments, children’s holiday activities, and Christmas Crafts and Gifts will be found in the warmth of Bradbury Hall.

So join us in the evenings on December 12th, 13th & 14th from 5:30 – 9 pm for an Old Time Country Christmas at Nelson Pioneer Farm and Museum, just east of Hwy 63 on the north edge of Oskaloosa. FREE WILL Donations requested.

This event is sponsored by Musco Lighting.
