Weather played an immense role in the lives of the Pleasant Hill Shakers. As farmers, the arrival of a late frost or an inopportune hailstorm could be the difference between a successful harvest and a lean year. Tornados, severe thunderstorms, and even earthquakes were all challenges endured by the Shakers. One year, spring flooding on the Kentucky River was so severe that the Shakers wrote that their buildings at Shaker Landing had turned into islands that they ”sailed around with the skiff.”

Join us for this special April program at Shaker Village’s riverfront property at Shaker Landing where we’ll explore some of the natural disasters and unpleasant weather that impacted the Pleasant Hill Shakers.

This program is a guided evening conversation, hosted around a warming fire at Shaker Landing. Lawn blankets will be provided for attendees. Participants should be comfortable walking brief distances over uneven ground. Participants unable to sit on the ground may wish to bring a lawn chair or other portable seating. unPleasant Weather will proceed rain or shine, although the program may be modified in case of inclement weather.

unPleasant Weather is intended for ages 12+. Tickets required for all attendees. Dogs are not permitted.

Registered attendees who book an overnight stay at The Inn receive a 30% discount, applied at checkout. (Overnight stay must be for the date immediately preceding or succeeding the program. Discount applies to one night. Cannot be combined with other offers.)

All tickets are non-refundable and non-transferrable.
