Johnston Farm and Indian Agency, a destination for those wishing to learn more about local native American, frontier and canal history in Piqua, will be hosting in February a Beginner’s Hearth Cooking Class.
A 200-acre park, the Johnston Farm and Indian Agency is the former home and farm of John Johnson a public official, farmer and a western Ohio U.S. Indian Agent from 1812 to 1829. The site explores 2,000 years of Ohio history dating from prehistoric times to the state’s canal era.
Brochure printing services are extremely valuable in promoting museums, historic sites and other attractions.
Near Johnston’s farm is a structure in the blockhouse style as seen at Fort Piqua, the 18th-century post of General Anthony Wayne. The structure is in fact a modern museum containing exhibits outlining Ohio’s Eastern Woodland Indians’ story. Also on hand is a replica of a mule-drawn 70-foot-long canal boat, the General Harrison of Piqua, that guests can ride while they learn about the history of canal boat transportation.
The beginner’s hearth cooling class is limited to 12 participants. Minors should be at least 13 years old and have a parent or guardian accompany them. The cost per person is $50, which is due at registration. The last day to register for the class is February 3. The class will take place on February 8, 2025, at the Johnston Farmhouse from 10 am to 5 pm.
