Step back to the days of yore, and help the Zoo celebrate its favorite "past" time, Harvest Days, at the Grassmere Historic Farm. Taking place on the lawn around the Zoo's Historic Home and Farm, Harvest Days is a celebration of life at harvest time in the 1800s. Crafts people and artisans will be demonstrating 19th century trades, such as yarn spinning, weaving, blacksmithing, pottery, woodcarving and more.

There will be a Civil War display, storytelling and several musical groups performing throughout the weekend. Make your own fresh apple cider at our mill; plant a seed to take home and grow; card some sheep's wool; or create a block for the 2008 Crazy Quilt. There will be numerous educational and fun activities for the whole family!

Tours of the Croft House, which was built in 1810, will be conducted by costumed interpreters, and garden tours and demonstrations will be led by the Davidson County Master Gardeners. Join us for this fun and educational event, and see what life was like at Grassmere before elephants roamed the backyard! Harvest Days is free with Zoo admission.
