Scything Demonstration

Saturday, June 15 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am
Scything, mowing, outdoors, lawn, grass, homesteading

The scythe is a quiet, non-polluting tool that requires no electricity or gasoline and has been used to cut grass and other plants for centuries.

Join us at Shaker Village to discover this wonderful tool and witness a licensed scythe instructor mow the infield grass where an 1869 Vintage Baseball Game will take place later in the day!

Included with your regular admission to Shaker Village!
Minors should have adult supervision.

Call 1-800-734-5611 or email info@shakervillageky.org for more information.
